BellaOnline Forums Health and Fitness Autism Spectrum Disorders Mercury's Role In Autism

Hello,

I just wanted to share some of my knowledge about mercury, autism and vaccines with you.

The pertussis vaccine (The DPT shot) contains approximately 100,000 times the legal limit of mercury for an ADULT. Adjusted for body weight, this means that infants receive 1.3 million times the safe limit of mercury in their vaccines. But that's not all - the kind of mercury used in vaccines is not ordinary elemental mercury, but organic mercury, which is 40 times as toxic because it crosses the brain-blood barrier with ease. That means that infants receive, all factors considered, about 56 million times the safe limit of mercury.

And as the amount of mercury in vaccines has increased, so has the rate of autism.

A coincidence? I think not.

So I beg you, do NOT get your children vaccinated!

Best Wishes,

Vaccines eliminated smallpox so that the vaccines are no longer necessary. I doubt you remember the disease, but it was a MAJOR killer. Vaccines would have eliminated polio worldwide (as they did in the US) but not for the superstitious and uninformed leading anti-vaccine crusades. In those countries where they have a foothold, polio still kills and cripples, and because of the anti-vaccine crusaders, polio could still make a comeback in the US. There is no causitive link betwen vaccination rates and Autism. The correlation is the same as that between ice cream sales and homicides. In those countries where thimersal has been removed from vaccines, the autism rates still increase. The epidemiological studies do not support a link between the vaccines and autism, but the opposite. If you want to risk your children's lives, their future fertility and health, and if you want to insure the spread of disease to other people's children, please don't get them vaccinated.

I think vaccinations is a personal decision and one that should be within the family and not a recommendation from a complete online stranger.

Furthermore, children cannot enter the school system in many states unless they have a record of vaccinations.

I would appreciate a link to scientific proof of this before telling parents what to do based on inuendo.
