[PROVE] Tools to search Vaccine Adverse Events and Calculate Mercury Exposure

[Guest guest]

Dear PROVE Members,

The National Vaccine Information Center just released two great tools for the

public concerned about vaccine reactions:

1) A user friendly searchable interface to the federal Vaccine Adverse

Events Reporting System (VAERS) where you can search for reports of others who

may have reacted to any vaccine www.MedAlerts.org, and

2) An interactive mercury calculator so you can plug in the shots and

calculate how much poisonous mercury you or your child was exposed to in

vaccines http://www.nvic.org/Issues/HgCalculator.htm

Take a few moments to go in and use these tools. Knowledge and truth are very

powerful. NVIC's (www.nvic.org) release information is below. - DR

The National Vaccine Information Center is proud to announce the sponsorship of

MedAlerts featuring a searchable database containing the Vaccine Adverse Events

Reporting System (VAERS).

NVIC worked with Congress to help pass the Vaccine Injury Compensation Act which

among other things created a centralized reporting system for adverse events

following vaccination which is now known as the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting

System. In 1993, the NBC-NOW Show featured an investigative segment on DPT hot

lots from the data reported to VAERS.

Steve Rubin, who holds a Ph.D. in computer science created the user friendly

searchable database for the public because the government database is very

difficult to use. Steve is married to Amy Lansky who is the author of

Impossible Cure (www.ImpossibleCure.com), a book about homeopathy and vaccine

issues. In 1995, Amy and Steve became involved to help their three year old son

Max recover from an autistic regression. Amy removed milk from his diet and

began speech and language therapy. When he was 3 1/2 she took him to a

homeopath and started to see changes almost immediately. With ongoing treatment

over the next year and one-half he was testing normally by age 5.

Amy also holds a Ph.D. in computer science but has given it up to focus on

homeopathy, writing and lecturing. She can be heard on Autism One Radio the

third Friday of each month from 2:00-2:30 EST, www.autismone.org/radio where she

focuses her show on homeopathy in general and the homeopathic treatment of

autism.

To serach the VAERS database go to www.NVIC.org/Issues/VAERS.htm or

Amy Lansky, Ph.D.

NATIONAL VACCINE INFORMATION CENTER ANNOUNCES

“THE MERCURY CALCULATOR”

Do you have a child who you suspect is vaccine injured because of exposure to

the mercury preservative Thimerosal in vaccines? Are you taking your child in

for routine vaccinations and want to know how much mercury he or she will be

injected with? Are you thinking about getting a vaccine yourself and wonder

about the mercury content? Now you can check it out with The Mercury Calculator

on the National Vaccine Information Center’s award winning website, www.NVIC.org

NVIC’s Mercury Calculator is quick and easy to use. Vaccines in use today as

well as those sold in the past, listed by vaccine type and manufacturer’s name.

Users just enter a weight and click on the vaccines which were/are to be give.

The total mercury load is automatically calculated to reveal how many times it

is over the allowable Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) “safe” limits for

mercury exposure.

For example, in 1980, a 10 pound two month old infant given the CDC and AAP

recommended whole cell DPT could have gotten 55 times the EPA limit for daily

mercury exposure, while a 25 pound two year old given DPT could have been

subjected to 22 times the EPA limit for daily mercury exposure.

In 1995, a 10 pound two month old infant who got the CDC and AAP recommended

DPT and HIB vaccines could have been 110 times over the EPA limit and an 18

pound six month old given the recommended DPT, HIB, and Hep B vaccines could

have been 76 times over the EPA limit, depending upon the manufacturers of the

vaccines.

Ten years later, in 2005, a 10 pound two month old baby who receives the

recommended DTaP, HIB, IPV, and pneumococcal vaccines may or may not be at all

over the EPA limit for single mercury exposure, depending upon the

manufacturers, while an 18 pound six month old who got these vaccines as well as

a dose of flu vaccine, could be 31 times over the EPA limit.

An 125 pound teenager or adult who gets a recommended flu and meningococcal

vaccination, could be 4-8 times over the EPA limit for a single mercury

exposure, depending upon the manufacturers. A teen or adult who got a

mercury-containing flu vaccine would have to weigh 551 pounds to be under the

EPA limit for a single mercury exposure.

Mercury is a known neuro-toxin that has been proven to cause brain damage in

the developing fetus as well as to children and adults exposed to it. The

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has developed guidelines for limiting

mercury exposures to humans from many different sources, including air and water

pollution; contaminated foods, such as tuna; as well as in products sold

over-the-counter, such as contact lens solution. In 1999, the EPA and Food and

Drug Administration (FDA) directed the vaccine manufacturers to remove mercury

from childhood vaccines.

Since 1999, vaccine manufacturers have been reducing the amount of mercury

preservatives in killed bacterial vaccines (live virus vaccines such as MMR and

chicken pox do not contain thimerosal) and some now only contain trace amounts,

depending upon the vaccine manufacturer, type of vaccine and whether the vaccine

is being packaged in multi-dose or single-dose vials.

Single-dose vials of killed bacterial vaccines usually only contain trace

amounts of mercury.

The mercury-based preservative, Thimerosal, has been used in killed bacterial

vaccines since the 1930’s without adequate testing for toxicity.

In the past two decades, as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and American

Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) have added many more vaccines containing Thimerosal

to the routine vaccination schedule for all children and states have mandated

these vaccines, children have been exposed to much higher levels of mercury

through vaccination. During this same time period, childhood developmental

disabilities have dramatically increased to the point where today the CDC

estimates 1 in 6 American children is developmentally delayed with a diagnosis

of autism, learning disabilities, attention problems or other learning or

behavioral problems. The CDC estimates that 1 in 166 American children has been

diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Clinical and scientific evidence is now

emerging which is linking mercury-containing vaccines to the regressive type of

autism in some children.

The National Vaccine Information Center is a non-profit, educational

organization founded by parents of vaccine injured children in 1982. NVIC is

dedicated to the prevention of vaccine injuries and deaths through public

education and defending the right of all citizens to make informed, voluntary

vaccination decisions. Accessing The Mercury Calculator at NVIC’s website,

www.NVIC.org, will also provide users with the opportunity to report a vaccine

reaction to NVIC’s Vaccine Reaction Registry and receive assistance about how to

report a vaccine reaction to the federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System

(VAERS).
