Flu season is right around the corner.


Thanks you for reminding wise people to get their shots, Jan. Good
work.

Flu season is over where I live, but could you give me a reminder in,
say, April next year. Thanks.

Most Flu Vaccines Contain Mercury

Flu season is right around the corner. Although the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention recommends that almost everyone, including
pregnant women, get flu vaccinations, few of the 130 million people
receiving this vaccination each year realize that most flu shots contain
harmful dosages of mercury.

About 80% of all flu shots distributed in the United States contain a
mercury-based preservative called thimerosal. According to health
officials, people getting flu-shots need to request a thimerosal-free
vaccination. These vaccines cost roughly $4 more to manufacture and
distribute.

Quick Related Quote & Facts:

Hypodermic needleQuote: "There's no conclusive scientific evidence that
the amount of mercury one might get from a flu shot is linked with any
neurological development outcome that's negative." - Jeanne Santoli,
deputy director of immunization services division for the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention

Fact: A typical flu shot contains 50,000 parts per billion of mercury.

Fact: The EPA classifies a liquid with 200 parts per billion of mercury as
hazardous waste.


As said previously in response to this material, I don't really care very
much whether poeple have flu vaccines or not, but I cannot stand these
spurious arguments. EPA standards have to be set very low for
industrial waste because it can be produced in huge amounts and end up in
drinking water.

Fact: The legal "safe" limit for mercury in drinking water is 2 parts per
billion


Has to be set low and with a very large margin of safety because three
litres or more of water can be consumed *every day* by an adult on top of
variable exposure to mercury as air pollution and fish consumption and
dental exposure.


Fact: For each flu-shot, a 22-pound baby gets more than 25 times the
amount of mercury considered safe.


Suddenly standards for drinking water with a large margin of safety has
become THE amount considered safe for a very different kind of exposure.

And doctors are recommending that many babies and children get two flu
shots this season.

Fact: A material safety data sheet from Eli Lilly and Co., a former
producer of flu vaccines, says exposure to thimerosal may include "fetal
changes, decreased offspring survival and lung tissue changes. Exposure in
utero and in utero and in children may cause mild to severe mental
retardation and mild to severe motor coordination impairment."


Unlikely to be referring to the amounts contained in vaccines.

How's this?
Older people ( past 40) who have flu shot regularly (every year) for five or
more years have a higher probability of "contracting" Alzheimer's.

What isn't said is what other of hundreds of commonalities do they have.

What we need is at least five, maybe ten more threads about flu shots.

Oh, I know research on how many flu shots the OPs have had as a child.

The only person making that claim is Fudenberg, and he never produced
any evidence to support it.

What does the quote from Goethe have to do with Haley's oft-repeated
nonsense? John seems to think that if you repeat gibberish enough
times, it will magically become true.
