FOR ERIC ♥ [ a special grandchild ♥] According to the review, There are over 165 studies that have focused on Thimerosal, an organic mercury (Hg) based compound, used as a preservative in many childhood vaccines, and found it to be harmful. Of these, 16 were conducted to specifically examine the effects of Thimerosal on human infants or children with reported outcomes of death; acrodynia; poisoning; allergic reaction; malformations; auto-immune reaction; Wells syndrome; developmental delay; and neurodevelopmental disorders, including tics, speech delay, language delay, attention deficit disorder, and autism. [references for the 16 studies can be found here: #3-16] While the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states there is no relationship between [T]himerosal[-]containing vaccines and autism rates in children,[1] the researchers pointed out that a study conducted by CDC epidemiologists found a 7.6-fold increased risk of autism from exposure to Thimerosal during infancy.
