| Some scientific evidence shows that thimerosal in vaccines leads to health problems, so in 1999 the US Public Health Service and the American Academy of Pediatrics—along with vaccine manufacturers—agreed that thimerosal should be reduced or eliminated from vaccines as a precaution. It has since been removed from childhood vaccines, yet manufacturers still are using thimerosal in the adult flu vaccine.
However, a preservative-free vaccine in a single-dose syringe is available. It contains only trace amounts of thimerosal—a residual from early manufacturing steps. |

The first reported case of autism occurred after thimerosal, a preservative for immunizations, was added to vaccines. Since then, the incidence of autism has increased at an alarming rate. thimerosal is not a necessary additive and is toxic to the human body, yet it has been used for years. And although thimerosal has been phased out of childhood vaccines, the vast majority of flu shots given to children and adults still contain it, and it is believed that many pediatricians are still using unexpired vials of thimerosal-containing vaccines. |

However, a preservative-free vaccine in a single-dose syringe is available. It contains only trace amounts of thimerosal—a residual from early manufacturing steps. thimerosal is used as a preservative in an amount less than 1 microgram (meg) of mercury per 0.5 milliliter (mL) dose. The regular injectable version contains 25 meg mercury/0.5 mL dose. Ask your doctor about it if you are getting a shot. |

Based on the fact that thimerosal was replaced with other toxic chemicals in the vaccines, there is absolutely no scientific way to clear thimerosal of any harmful effects. There are too many variables operating now, and no study can isolate one variable (thimerosal) out of many and prove it to be harmless.
The truth is that scientists have no idea what's causing autism. They acknowledge the alarming increase in the rates of autism now being observed in the population, but with this new study, they claim, "Mercury is safe!"

The mercury-based preservative thimerosal (brand name Merthiolate), for example, was removed as a health threat in 2001, but was a source of toxic mercury for millions of kids who received up to nine shots with this additive between 1988 and 2001. thimerosal is still in some flu shots, and it's a hotly contested debate in political and medical circles. Other additives common in vaccines include aluminum, formaldehyde, monosodium glutamate (MSG), sulfites, and the antifreeze ingredient ethylene glycol. |

Well, in one study that examined CDC statistics, researchers found evidence that children who receive just three vaccines containing thimerosal are 27 times more likely to develop autism, compared to children who get vaccinations containing no thimerosal. That's a 2,700 percent increase. Who needs more proof than that? Apparently, the current (2007) administration of the U.S. government does. |

| These vaccines contain thimerosal, a chemical preservative made, in part, with toxic methyl mercury. This toxic substance was banned decades ago in many countries, but not in the U.S. where corrupt health officials cater to the financial interests of drug companies rather than protecting the public.

If removing thimerosal from vaccines made them safer, we should have seen autism rates go down, but we did not! Autism rates continued to climb in direct correlation to vaccination rates, indicating that mercury is not the only toxic substance causing neurological problems in children.
Notice, carefully, that this is nothing close to what's being reported in the mainstream media, where headlines are blaring junk science nonsense like, "Vaccines pose no risk for autism" (San Jose Mercury News) and "Thimerosal Does Not Cause Autism" (Slashdot, which should know better). |
| Multiple toxic chemicals and substances are contained in vaccines, and the mercury in thimerosal may have simply been one factor among many.
The only reasonable, scientifically-minded conclusion we can draw from the study is that removing mercury from vaccines does not reduce autism in children. If removing thimerosal from vaccines made them safer, we should have seen autism rates go down, but we did not! Autism rates continued to climb in direct correlation to vaccination rates, indicating that mercury is not the only toxic substance causing neurological problems in children. |

Food and Drug Administration has acknowledged that thimerosal can be a neurotoxin (knowing very well that mercury is a neurotoxin), and in 2004 stated that thimerosal-containing vaccines were associated with autism. As of 2003, there were 1.5 million autistic U.S. children, adding $90 billion per year to the already skyrocketing health care costs.

| A law was just enacted that appropriated $3 billion to encourage pharmaceuticals to find new antibiotics to replace the old ones that are becoming resistant; or to create new vaccines — perhaps without a thimerosal base? — for ever-more virulent bacteria. (Thimerosal is the preservative added to many vaccines that is being linked to autism, ADD, and other disorders.)

Mercury, in one of its forms, thimerosal, is still used in some flu vaccines and some over-the-counter pharmaceuticals. Present until recently in virtually every vaccine children received throughout the 1990s, including hepatitis B, bacterial meningitis, diphtheria, whooping cough, and tetanus, thimerosal is now the subject of a well-known heated controversy questioning whether cumulative doses in childhood vaccines may play a role in autism and other developmental delays. |

According to Scarborough, "There's no doubt in my mind that maybe two years from now or five years from now or ten years from now, we are going to find out what we know intuitively, that thimerosal, the mercury in the vaccines, absolutely causes autism and other learning disabilities."
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. states, "The fact is the science is out there anyway. Anyone can read it. It's even on my website, RobertFKennedyJr. com. The science is clear. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of studies that connect the thimerosal to these disastrous neurological disorders." When Robert F. |

Thus, the continuing increase in autism rates following vaccination may be due to the toxic chemicals that replaced thimerosal. While mercury injections probably initiated the increase in autism, the toxic substance has been replaced with other dangerous chemicals that are continuing to increase the risk of autism.
Here's an example to explain this a bit more:
We all know that sodium nitrite in processed meat causes cancer, right? Well, let's say that for ten years, somebody feeds all the kids sodium nitrite and cancer rates skyrocket. |

Thus, sadly, children receiving thimerosal containing vaccines are sitting ducks to mercury when both magnesium and glutathione levels are low.
Also under the shadow of magnesium deficiency, too much Nitric Oxide (NO) is produced which in turn may react with superoxide to form a very damaging compound peroxynitrite. Low magnesium levels can induce such excessive NO production that even the glutathione in the red blood cells is damaged. This provides one explanation for why magnesium protects the arteries. |

REPPED: While the mainstream press is widely reporting a new study "disproving" any link between autism and mercury-containing thimerosal in vaccines, no one has bothered to point out that the study was published in a medical journal stacked full of ads from the very same drug companies that manufacture and market vaccines. |
| Notice, carefully, that this is nothing close to what's being reported in the mainstream media, where headlines are blaring junk science nonsense like, "Vaccines pose no risk for autism" (San Jose Mercury News) and "Thimerosal Does Not Cause Autism" (Slashdot, which should know better). Even WIRED News got it wrong with: "California Study Finds No Link Between Vaccines, Autism."
The correct headline should be, "Removal of Mercury From Vaccines Fails to Halt Rise in Autism."
Or, "Removing Mercury From Vaccines Does Not Make Them Safer."
Nobody reported that. |

| Many common vaccines contain thimerosal (nearly 50% mercury in structure) to preserve their ingredients.
Intestinal Toxins from Aluminum
As mentioned before, aluminum isn't actually a heavy metal, but I've chosen to include it since it can be found in so many modern products. The prevalence of aluminum and aluminum alloys in such a wide variety of items is especially troubling because it's toxic even in small amounts. Ever since refining developments in the 1880s permitted inexpensive extraction of the metal, more and more products containing aluminum have been introduced to consumers. |

The drug thimerosal is a preservative that was put in vaccines back in the 1930s. Immediately after the drug was put in, autism cases started to appear. It is important to note that autism had never been known before! There was no such thing as autism. Autism started and was created by this drug used in vaccines. In 1989 the Centers for Disease Control mandated that vaccines increase. Vaccines increased from 10 to 24. This means kids started receiving 24 vaccines as mandated by the government. All of these vaccines have this deadly drug thimerosal in them.
This drug is in fact mercury. |
| There are literally hundreds and hundreds of studies that connect the thimerosal to these disastrous neurological disorders." When Robert F. Kennedy talked to the federal bureaucrats who were defending thimerosal, he found that these politicians and bureaucrats were doing so at the orders of the multinational corporations that are making the money on the sale of these dangerous products.
He discovered what I had been reporting on for years, that these bureaucrats use the media to perpetuate the lie that these things are safe. They use phony scientists who create junk science. |

| One of my biggest problems with the flu shot is that it contains thimerosal, a preservative that contains mercury.
Mercury is a known immune-system suppressant and is toxic to the nervous system. In my opinion, it can be particularly harmful to pregnant women because it exposes the fetus to mercury. Infants are not able to detoxify mercury effectively, and it can cause nerve and brain damage in children. |

Remember that thimerosal is only one of the many serious issues with immunizations. But another option is to request Flu-Mist, a nasal mist vaccine that does not contain thimerosal.33
