explain why the rates of Autism have not dropped in California even

though thimersol has been removed from most vaccines for a few years

now:

Is Aluminum the New Thimerosal ( Mercury) ?

Vaccines have become the most controversial parenting topic of the

decade. When parents are considering whether or not to vaccinate their

children, one of the things that must be considered is aluminum

toxicity.

Aluminum is added to a number of vaccines to help them work better.

Normally, one wouldn't consider aluminum to be a problem. It's a

naturally occurring element that is present everywhere in our

environment—in food, water, air, and soil. It's also a main ingredient

in over-the-counter antacids. And because the body doesn't absorb

aluminum, it's harmless when swallowed.

I didn't think much about aluminum when, 13 years ago, I began

researching vaccines. In fact, the early seminars on vaccine education

that I offered to parents included a brief statement that aluminum was

nothing to worry about. But as I read each product insert and saw the

number of micrograms (mcg) of aluminum contained in several vaccines, I

wondered, "Has anyone determined what a safe level of injected aluminum

actually is?" I didn't have to wonder for long, because the answer is

easy to find; go to www.fda.gov, search on "aluminum toxicity," and you'll find several documents about aluminum.
