  • "It's just too darn toxic. If you inject Thimerosal into an animal, it's brain will sicken.

    If you apply it to living tissue, the cells die. If you put it in a petri dish, the culture dies.

    Knowing these things, it would be shocking if one could inject it into an infant, without causing damage."

    Dr. Boyd Haley, Head of Chemistry Dept, U of Kentucky

  • Thanks for posting.

  • @vuetube Iagree, I also play with mercury as child. It is not bad for you

  • I think that pretty much covers everything. Of course, you could always surprise me by not being the typical uneducated and proudly ignorant fearmonger that I've encountered here, and actually come up with an intelligent and valid argument. But I really doubt it.

  • 5) Make some idiotic arguments that shows your complete lack of education in basic science and biology, most notably that you don't understand the following:

    1. The definition of toxic

    2. The fact that toxicity is dependent on dosage

    3. Correlation does not equal causation

    4. The purpose of thimerosal in vaccines

    6) Call me a shill, liar, etc..

    7) Fail to provide any sort of credible evidence to support your statements

    cont

  • 4)State that anything that disputes what you claim is a lie, that the CDC/ Vaccine makers are lying about mercury free vaccines, etc... To which I will reply that it is very easy to test a substance for mercury, and if you really think that everyone is lying about mercury free vaccines, you should obtain a vial, have it independently tested, prove that it still contains mercury, sue the vaccine manufacturers, and be a hero to millions.

    cont

  • 3)State that vaccines don't really work and that better sanitation and diet is what really caused the decrease of diseases, to which I will point out the chickenpox vaccines and Hib vaccines, both of which have been introduced within the last 20 years and of which the case rates of both have dropped drastically after their introduction. I will ask you what huge advancements we've had in sanitation or diet in the past 20 years to explain this situation, to which you will not answer.

    cont

  • So to tell people that they should avoid life saving vaccines because of a minute amount of mercury (if any at all), is absolutely ignorant.

    Now, I fully expect you to 1) completely ignore the content of my posts 2) make an idiotic statement about how vaccines are much more dangerous because they're "Injected directly into the bloodstream!!!" (even though they aren't) 2) make some comment about how your digestive system blocks mercury from food and water (it doesn't, btw)

    cont

  • Not only that, but the type of mercury found in foods, methylmercury, bioaccumulates, while the type of mercury used in Thimerosal, ethyl mercury, does not. That means that your body eliminates the mercury from vaccines much faster than it does from foods. You also eat food and drink water that contains mercury much more frequently than you get vaccines.

    What this means is that you're exposed to MUCH MUCH MORE mercury from food and water than you every would get from vaccines.

    cont

  • Amazingly, you seem to have ignored the entirety of my first post. Not only are there mercury free versions of vaccines available, the amount of mercury in vaccines that do contain it is not enough to cause damage.

    Do you know how much mercury is in vaccines that contain it? Less than 25 micrograms. There is more mercury found in a can of tuna, on average, than in any vaccines. And YES, your body does absorb mercury from the foods you eat, almost 100% of it.
