Mercury in Vaccines and Autism - The Burden of Proof May Shift

" Prior to the FDA's intervention in 1999, children would receive up to

187.5 micrograms of mercury in the first 6 months if the recommended

schedule of vaccinations was followed by parents. Now that figure is

reduced to less than 3 micrograms. If you add the mercury from a

thimerosal-containing influenza vaccine, that number only increases to

28 micrograms of mercury. This level of mercury exposure is well below

the 65 microgram limit (for methyl mercury) set by the Environmental

Protection Agency for a child during the first 6 months of life. "
