Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Yes, the old tetanus vaccine was replaced by the Decavac " trace thimerosal " vaccine a few years ago. This is the Td, as the standard adult " tetanus booster " has a small dose of Diphtheria toxoid too. [Children get a higher dose of the diphtheria toxoid than adults, of note.] For several years, the Decavac was the only adult Td booster on the market. At some point relatively recently, Sanofi has added a " generic " version of the same drug. It has FULL DOSE THIMEROSAL according to the package insert. And to top it off, the Hopkins Thimerosal Table has incorrectly listed it as " trace " thimerosal. If there wasn't proof already that Pharma has absolutely NO motivation to remove thimerosal from the market, I would think this would convince the skeptics. They are trying to kill us all! And not only that, the corrupt Hopkins people are covering it up on their website. I'm sure it is just an honest mistake. Yes, of course it is. Hopkins " Institute for Vaccine Safety " thimerosal table: http://www.vaccinesafety.edu/thi-table.htm (of note, this table is poorly maintained. Lots of dead links. Name brand Decavac Td (single dose): http://www.vaccineshoppe.com/US_PDF/DECAVAC_5082.5083_07.05%20syr_vl.pdf Generic Sanofi Td (multidose vial only): http://www.vaccineshoppe.com/US_PDF/271-83_4152_4153.pdf " Thimerosal (a mercury derivative) 1:10,000 is added as a preservative " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
