An Open Letter to Congress About Mercury in VaccinesCatherine J. Frompovich Ladies and Gentlemen: Are you concerned about mercury in food and water that children are taking into their bodies? I would hope so. We hear about President Obamas proposed tax, which apparently will kill the coal mining and coal power generation industries in order to curb carbon emissions. Besides, mercury is released from coal burning [5]. However, mercury seems to be everywhere according to the EPAs website, which lists sources of consumer products containing mercury. On that EPA website we read this regarding mercury in vaccines: U.S. FDAs Information on Mercury-Containing Medicines, Antibiotics and Vaccines The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) provides a list of mercury-containing drug and biologic products, including the types and percentages of mercury ingredients in each of these products. The list includes non-homeopathic human and veterinary drug products and human biological products. Homeopathic drug products are not included because of the low amounts of mercury present in the products. Additional information on thimerosal content for biological products can be found on their Thimerosal in Vaccines and Mercury in Plasma-Derived Products pages. [CJF emphasis added] Heres the proof that mercury STILL is in vaccines: Mercury tests conducted on vaccines at the Natural News Forensic Food Lab have revealed a shockingly high level of toxic mercury in an influenza vaccine (flu shot) made by GlaxoSmithKline (lot #9H2GX). Tests conducted via ICP-MS document mercury in the Flulaval vaccine at a shocking 51 parts per million, or over 25,000 times higher than the maximum contaminant level of inorganic mercury in drinking water set by the EPA. [1] [CJF emphasis added] That is totally outrageous, irresponsible, illegal, and should be declared criminal. What will Congress do to get mercury out of vaccines given to pregnant women, adults and, most of all to infants and children? Members of Congress, please do not shirk your constitutional responsibility and oversight duties regarding the U.S. Food and Drug Administrations apparent inability to guarantee safe vaccines. Vaccines that contain 25,000 times more mercury than what the EPA says are the maximum contaminant levels in drinking water are NOT safe! Furthermore, no amount of mercury in any form is safe! Mercury is a neurotoxin. According to Medscape, Mercury in any form is poisonous, with mercury toxicity most commonly affecting the neurologic, gastrointestinal (GI) and renal organ systems. Poisoning can result from mercury vapor inhalation, mercury ingestion, mercury injection, and absorption of mercury through the skin. Mercury has 3 forms: (1) elemental mercury, (2) inorganic salts, and (3) organic compounds. [2] [CJF emphasis added] Note that Mercury in any form is poisonous, and Poisoning can result from mercury injection which happens with vaccines and vaccinations! If readers and vaccine apologists still dont believe that mercury, i.e., ethylmercury 49.6% as Thimerosal, still is in vaccines, then maybe you will be convinced when you read it on the U.S. CDCs website Influenza Vaccines United States, 2013-14 Influenza Season (Tables 1 3) Heres a listing of influenza (flu) vaccines that contain mercury in 5.0 mL multi-dose vials: Note that an asterisk * is being placed beside those flu vaccines routinely recommended for children under 6 years of age. CDCs epidemiologist Dr. Thomas Verstraeten, MD, in a paper issued in 1999 and subsequently obtained via Freedom of Information Act by a member of the U.S. Congress in the summer of 2013, shows this: Methods: We categorized the cumulative ethylmercury exposure from Thimerosal containing vaccines after one month of life and assessed the subsequent risk of degenerative and developmental neurologic disorders and renal disorders before the age of six. We applied proportional hazard models adjusting for HMO year of birth, and gender, excluding premature babies. Results: We identified 286 children with degenerative and 3702 with developmental disorders, and 310 with renal disorders. [.] Within this group we also found an elevated risk for the following disorders: autism (RR 7.6. 95% Cl = 1.8-31.5), non organic sleep disorders (RR 5.0. 95% Cl = 1.6-15.9), and speech disorders (RR 2.1. 95% (1=1.1-4.0). For the neurologic degenerative and renal disorders group we found no significantly increased risk or a decreased risk. [CJF emphasis added] See my selfnewsPost.com article Vaccine Dangers: BOMBSHELL Admissions from CDCs 1999 Epidemiologist for more details about that admission. This vaccine-mercury-tragedy, which probably IS responsible for adverse health eventsincluding autismis the perfect opportunity to get the ball rolling on investigating neurotoxins and other hazardous and toxic chemicals in vaccines being injected legally and by mandate into infants, toddlers, teens, adults, and senior citizens in the USA. Last this writer checked, outwardly at least, U.S. health agencies still were not operating on Dr. Joseph Mengeles [3] principles. I dont think Congress would want that to happen. Furthermore, with autism affecting one in 68 U.S. children [4], I think Congress owes it to U.S. parents to stop pussy-footing around Big Pharma and the FDA and get down to business with a serious independent investigation of vaccines toxic ingredients and their over-glorified politics. However, collectively, we ask that you please turn your head and hands away when Big Pharmas lackeys come courting you hat-in-hand-with-check-in-vest-pocket saying information about mercury in vaccines is incorrect? Heres a listing of the heavy receivers in the U.S. Congress. http://maplight.org/us-congress/interest/H4300 What do we expect when Congress gets that kind of cash from pharmaceutical makers. This article, On the Edge: Congress and its drug money addiction explains, perhaps, only the tip of the iceberg. Members of Congress, youve been misled far too long and, unfortunately, many constituents apparently consider Congress an accessory to the fact regarding unsafe vaccines because of your willingness to take what lobbyists so graciously offer to get the corporate agenda enacted rather than what is safe for health consumers both with Congress and the U.S. FDA. The jig is up! Twenty-five thousand times more mercury than the EPA says is the maximum contaminant levels for drinking water legally is being injected into your constituentsa very serious matter, so we are holding you accountable for getting mercury out of vaccinesNOW! We cannot trust the CDC/FDAs or Big Pharmas numbers and information anymore!
