Thinking of getting vaccinated?

Then you've heard wrong.

It is metabolised into ethylmercury.

Then you might want to let the CDC know their website is wrong.

And I notice nobody has commented on the Polysorbate 80 article yet.

If you can be bothered, go back and count the semi-colons in both versions of the quote. There's 32 in both.

Then ask yourself whether it's likely that I carefully removed a series of full stops (why the fuck I'd bother is anyone's guess) without accidentally deleting a semi-colon in the process, or whether it's more likely that berkboy went back and added some full stops to make it look like the quote had been altered.

I suspect they're pretty aware of that fact already. It's common for such sites to 'dumb down' the explanations to educate the gullible and counter conspiracy theory nonsense. Did you notice the bit where they said it was safe? or that it was taken out of vaccines in 2001? or that it was never in MMR, IPV, HIV, SRT, GTS, and VFR vaccines at all?

Doesn't change the fact that there are still vaccines out there that do contain thimerosal.

Vaccines contain a maximum of 100µg of Polysorbate 80, which is roughly 400,000 times less than the LD50 for a newborn. We ingest 1000 times that amount (100mg) per day, since Polysorbate 80 is used as an emulsifier in many foods.

I'm well aware of that.

But as I've pointed out many times now, there's a big difference between ingesting a product and injecting it.

Polysorbate 80 is used in vaccines to ensure thorough mixing of the ingredients. But it is also used in pharmacology as a means to transport certain drugs past the blood/brain barrier.

It's not inconceivable that it could be doing just that with some of the toxins found in vaccines.

shit full of it you are

Thimerosal contains ethylmercury, which is cleared from the human body more quickly than methylmercury, and is therefore less likely to cause any harm.
The human body eliminates thimerosal easily.
Thimerosal does not stay in the body a long time so it does not build up and reach harmful levels. When thimerosal enters the body, it breaks down to ethylmercury and thiosalicylate, which are readily eliminated.

Thimerosal has been shown to be safe when used in vaccines.
Thimerosal use in medical products has a record of being very safe. Data from many studies show no evidence of harm caused by the low doses of thimerosal in vaccines.

There are some side effects of thimerosal in vaccines.
The most common side-effects are minor reactions like redness and swelling at the injection site. Although rare, some people may be allergic to thimerosal.

Scientific research does not show a connection between thimerosal and autism.
Research does not show any link between thimerosal in vaccines and autism, a neurodevelopmental disorder. Many well conducted studies have concluded that thimerosal in vaccines does not contribute to the development of autism. Even after thimerosal was removed from almost all childhood vaccines, autism rates continued to increase, which is the opposite of what would be expected if thimerosal caused autism.https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/concerns/thimerosal/

I think we've established that the CDC ~~believe thimerosal to be perfectly safe.~~ are intent on having us believe that thimerosal is perfectly safe.

There are others who are not so convinced though.

So do you actually have any evidence at all that thimerosal is not safe or is it just one of your gut feelings like the shapeshifting lizards elvis being alive 911 and JFK.........
Because the CDC have actual studies that show it to be safe.
