Andy.....How much mercury?

[Guest guest]

You are the chemist. I am on a group with chemist and no one seems

to be able to answer my question...

If 0.1mcg is the limit for " ingesting " mercury, What would be the

limit for " injecting " mercury?

One of the chemist did remark and said, Donna, the flu vaccine is in

a shortage because of lawsuits. Of course he doesnt have his facts

straight, And I had to kindly let him know that, there is a special

fund for vaccine injurys, and Pharma doesnt pay for the lawsuits, WE

DO, We are charged and extra .75 on each vaccine that goes into this

fund.

But, if you could please let me know how much mercury you think as a

chemist would/should be the limit for " injecting " into our bodies.

Thank You,

Donna

3/4 of the ingested amount (organic basis).

BTW, the EPA report has 2 flaws. One is they fudged the volume of

distribution of methylmercury which is actually availble in th

literature and their result should be 0.6 times what it is. Second the

most impaired kids have low hair mercury and they used hair mercury

based studies to decide how much was OK. Given that I'd say you have

to lower their level by a factor of at least 3 to make it " safe. " Thus

the injected amount that is " OK " is 0.025 mcg, not 25 mcg. Of course I

think the correct amount is as close to zero as you can get it.

Andy,

When you say that the most impaired kids have low hair mercury,

You need to remeber some have extreme high levels and are more

impaired then the MOST toxic Autistic child. I think people forget

about the ones with extreme high levels. If a child has a high level

of 5mcg. This would be considered safe?? If a infant has a level of

13.78mcg This is EXTREME toxic level for a 17lb infant. This could

be compared to a 121.58mcg for a 150 lb man. Well when you take into

consideration a fetus has no blood brain barrier, I guess this would

be much higher than that.

Given that I'd say you have

The Bayer Corporation makes a Rho (D) Immune Globulin product

(BayRho) which in the past contained thimerosal; this product has

been manufactured without preservative since 1996, so that no in-

date BayRho contains thimerosal. Regarding the previously

distributed product, the volume of a single dose of the Bayer

product was approximately 0.7 ml. The thimerosal concentration was

0.01%, so the total mercury in a single dose would have been

approximately 35 micrograms of ethyl mercury.

Do you think a womans weight has anything to do with the

distribution of Mercury when they are injected?

Thanks,
