"In 1999, in response to these growing safety concerns, a federal program began to phase out thimerosal from most childhood vaccines, although many doses containing thimerosal lingered in the supply chain for several years afterward. Unfortunately, the CDC's 1999 recommendation did not apply to the flu vaccine, most of which to this day contains thimerosal. And it's not as if only a small minority of children receive the flu shot. As Dr. Lawrence Rosen pointed out, it's now recommended for all children 6 months to five years old, regardless of their health condition." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.)

"CONCLUSIONS: The present study provides the first epidemiological evidence showing that as Thimerosal was removed from childhood vaccines, the number of NDs has decreased in the US. The analysis techniques utilized attempted to minimize chance or bias/confounding. Additional research should be conducted to further evaluate the relationship between TCVs and NDs. This is especially true because the handling of vaccine safety data from the National Immunization Program of the CDC has been called into question by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences in 2005." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.) "BACKGROUND: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effects of MMR immunization and mercury from thimerosal-containing childhood vaccines on the prevalence of autism.

"In three test cases, lawyers for the parents will put forward three theories: that autism was caused either by the MMR vaccine, or by other childhood vaccines containing the mercury preservative thimerosol, or by a combination of thimerosol and MMR.

"Specifically, the concern centers around thimerosol, a mercury-based preservative that was used in several childhood vaccines until 1999, at which time thimerosol was removed or greatly reduced. An estimated 80 percent of children show significant improvement after detoxification of poisonous heavy metals from their system. Mercury is known to depress zinc, which simultaneously elevates the body's copper levels, the result of a dysfunction in metallothionein. According to Dr." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"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." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.)

"Ayoub has compiled a comprehensive list of the many other ways that we might be exposed to aluminum, including aluminum foil, antacids, aspirin, dust, auto exhaust, antiperspirants, treated water, vanilla powder, nasal spray, salt, commercially raised beef, tobacco smoke, bleached flour, baking powder, cans, animal feed, ceramics, commercial cheese, and of course childhood vaccines. Dr." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.) "Until recently, thimerosal was used in three childhood vaccines: hepatitis B, Haemophilus influenzae B (Hib), and diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP). Hib and hepatitis B were introduced to the U.S. vaccination schedule in October 1990 and November 1991, respectively. These additions to the immunization schedule exposed many U.S. babies to mercury at levels that the Environmental Protection Agency didn't consider safe for oral consumption by adults." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This!

"In 1994, the CDC capped prices of childhood vaccines the agency purchased for use in public health centers throughout the country—the source for most children in the United States. Some companies then stopped selling vaccines to the government, although they continued to supply private doctors and health plans at much higher prices. There is no doubt that drug companies could not make as much on childhood vaccines as they could on remedies for high cholesterol or erectile dysfunction, but were they taking a loss?" - Marcia Angell, M.D., The Truth About the Drug Companies: How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It (Get the book.)

"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. 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.

"Since deficient magnesium and high levels of mercury are related, childhood vaccines containing thi-merosal would be especially dangerous to administer in children deficient in magnesium. According to Dr. Seelig, "In Finland, which has a very high death rate from heart disease, there is a clear relationship between heart disease and the amount of magnesium in the soil (Karppanen and Neuvonen, 1973)." - Mark Sircus, Transdermal Magnesium Therapy (Get the book.)

"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.32 In addition, just because a vaccine says "thimerosal-free" doesn't mean that it is mercury-free.

"Thimerosal was still found in childhood vaccines as recently as 2005. And it is still present in most flu shots.13 So when you or your child does get a vaccination, make absolutely sure it is mercury-free.

"Aluminum is still present in many regular childhood vaccines. Since the universally found organochlorine contaminants known as PCBs can powerfully and permanently lower the amount of catecholamines produced in the brain, it is no surprise that the number of children developing ADHD is on the increase. Indeed, mothers who have higher body levels of other catecholamine-depleting toxins, such as the commonly found organochloride pesticide known as DDT and its metabolite DDE, are also more likely to have children affected by ADHD." - Dr. Paula Baillie-Hamilton, Toxic Overload: A Doctor's Plan for Combating the Illnesses Caused by Chemicals in Our Foods, Our Homes, and Our Medicine Cabinets (Get the book.)

"There is no doubt that drug companies could not make as much on childhood vaccines as they could on remedies for high cholesterol or erectile dysfunction, but were they taking a loss? Drug company profits are so large that one would hope the companies would be willing to make less profitable but vital drugs as a social service—and a thank-you to the public that subsidizes them so handsomely. But that is not the way this industry works. It all comes down to dollars and cents." - Marcia Angell, M.D., The Truth About the Drug Companies: How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It (Get the book.)

"Conversely, some nosodes come up time and again as trouble-makers in many different conditions. childhood vaccines are particularly notorious in this respect. I think we can go some way towards answering the mystery about where the present post-war epidemic of allergies has come from. At least part of the reason is the childhood vaccination programme, dropping toxins on the immune system, spleen, etc., which then results in malfunction. The child may avoid the whooping cough or diphtheria, only to suffer with many more obscure and difficult-to-treat symptoms later in life." - Keith Scott-Mumby, Virtual Medicine: A New Dimension in Energy Healing (Get the book.)

"Yet these potent carcinogens are in most childhood vaccines. ?Vaccines also can contain viruses, or bacteria that contain viruses, and some viruses have been associated with certain cancers. Also, vaccinations for one type of virus can carry unexpected viruses in them that may come from the animals used to create the vaccine. For example, the polio vaccine of the 1950s and 1960s, that was injected into millions of children, was found to carry an unexpected virus from the monkey kidney cells that were used to cultivate the polio vaccine." - Tanya Harter Pierce, Outsmart Your Cancer: Alternative Non-Toxic Treatments That Work (Get the book.) "Possibly one of the saddest realities today is that the common practice of administering childhood vaccines may be introducing carcinogenic substances into millions of children and contributing to pediatric cancers. This subject is also very controversial, but some researchers have come up with information that is quite alarming. One couple whose two-year-old son was diagnosed with the most common type of pediatric brain cancer—medulloblastoma—did their own informal research, which they posted on the Internet at www.ouralexander.org/burton.htm." - Tanya Harter Pierce, Outsmart Your Cancer: Alternative Non-Toxic Treatments That Work (Get the book.)

"Perhaps the worst shortages are of childhood vaccines. In 2000, the supply of the combined vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, and whooping cough was so short that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommended that infants receive only the first three of the five recommended doses. Booster shots were eliminated. The agency also suggested deferral of the second dose of the measles, mumps, and German measles vaccine and of the chickenpox vaccine." - Marcia Angell, M.D., The Truth About the Drug Companies: How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It (Get the book.)
