Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 My 51/2 y/o had all the regular immunizations up until kindergarten and I have not had them done yet as we are in the middle of learning so much about mercury toxicity. Question is: today while out playing she scraped her hands in a few places on a rusty swing set. Is she still covered by the DPT she has had or do I need to get a tetanus booster? Thanks for any opinions. N. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 27, 2002 Report Share Posted January 27, 2002 I'd never advise as to whether to vaccinate or not the decision is your and yours alone just make sure it's a fully informed one! you will get vaccine info from:- http://www.909shot.com http://www.whale.to/ Personally Any wounds i clean thoroughly with a sterile Saline(salt water-boiled and cooled)solution, Tetanus cannot survive in air-hence the reason it lives underground, so at all times possible do not cover wound, it's important to allow the air to circulate around it. My opinion.

When you decide it is time to consider vax, you should first have your child's titres tested. About 95% of children are already fully immune because of the previous vax, and the boosters are just to catch the 5% of children who did not already become fully immune. If your child's titres are in acceptable range, you can receive a medical waiver. Here is more of my vax information and opinion. http://www.autismchannel.net/dana/myvaxopn.htm > Question is: today while out playing she scraped her > hands in a few places on a rusty swing set. Did it bleed? If it bled, there is only a very low risk of tetanus. > Is she still covered by the DPT > she has had or do I need to get a tetanus booster? Thanks for any opinions. The information I have, is that tetanus is treatable even if you refuse a booster and she develops the disease. Altho of course the medical people will want you to agree to the vax. The problem is, the DTaP does come in a thimerosal-free version, but the P portion causes encephalitis reactions in many children. But if you opt for one of the " tetanus shot " versions that does not contain P, the DT or Td or TT, they ALL still contain thimerosal. http://www.vaccinesafety.edu/thi-table.htm Just learn all you can, and make the decision you believe is best for your child. Here is my entire vax section, I have information pro and con on vaccines. http://www.autismchannel.net/dana/parent3.htm#vaccines Good luck.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 yes, the tetanus vaccine is available alone, at least in canada. i just don't know if it's thimersol free but am finding out. mandi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 From what I remember yes it does have mercury, a good amount too. Sorry, wish I could say different. I would look at NVIC.org and look at what they have to say. Are you doing chelation? If so it may be good to ask others if it is okay to use ALA right now. I know you can't use it right after getting fillings taken out. There is also supplements at the health food store that are supposed to help minimize damage. Homeopathy may be a good one to help as well. They do vaccine clearing that is supposed to help the body reverse damage done. Mercury isn't good for anyone. He maybe just fine and he may have some issues from it. I would keep an eye on him. Have you ever done a hair test on him? We are going to do one with my NT son because his older brother is ASD. Zach has been pretty much typical but is showing some interesting signs of maybe having a mercury issue. HTH, Elaine <elaine1038@...> wrote: do tetanus shots have thimersol? What are the dangers if so to a nonautistic child. My ex just took our older son who is not autistic but does have Learning disability for a physical. He got him a tetanus shot!!! I don't know if this has thimersol. Freaking out slightly. My younger boy is PDD-NOS but have avoided vaccines so far with both kids since he was diagnosed . Did not realize today at a physical that my doctor would be suggesting a vaccine for a 13-year-old. ======================================================= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 Boostrix is a new tetanus booster without thimerosol. Probably has other undesirable preservatives, but not mercury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him lots of vitamin C and selenium for the next few weeks. Also consider anti-virals like olive leaf extract. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 Each antigen is individually adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide. All antigens are then diluted and combined to produce the final formulated vaccine. Each 0.5-mL dose is formulated to contain 2.5 Lf of diphtheria toxoid, 5 Lf of tetanus toxoid, 2.5 mcg of pertactin, 8 mcg of FHA, and 8 mcg of inactivated PT. Each 0.5-mL dose also contains 4.5 mg of NaCl, aluminum adjuvant (not more than 0.39 mg aluminum by assay), <100 mcg of residual formaldehyde, and <100 mcg of polysorbate 80 (Tween 80). Above are the ingredients according to one website.

Guest guest Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 I don't know about your area, but they have started pushing the tetanus/diphtheria vaccine here in Southwest Michigan. There were two big plugs for it on one of our local channels yesterday. One before and one after the nightly news. About a yea,r or so, there was a work-up someone had done on a list I was on showing that one is 42 times more likely to get hit by lightening than to get tetanus! Happy Holidays! ;>) Judith Alta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Remember that the pertussis vaccine is known to cause encephalitis- it is clearly listed on the package insert as a well known side effect; so be careful of that headache. ~ Maureen R.

Of course we can't say this >is from the vaccine, but both of us feel that it is. Of course it probably is - especially never gets headaches Tragic - the only thing I know that could reverse is homeopathy I never recommend anyone go to RN school because they and hospitals can demand any vaccine that they want including MMR and flu vax. Both pertussis and tetanus in the vaccine are both highly reactive. Drink lots of water, high doses of vitamin C (sodium ascorbate form) and Vitamin D3 but no guarantee that will be enough. Let me know if you want a homeopath's name Good luck Sheri >Thanks for you input! >Adelyn > > > >------------------------------------ > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
