Flu vaccine information

FLU SHOTS: MERCURY CONTENT

Only 6-8% of this year's flu vaccine supply is

mercury free. The remaining 92-94% contains 25

micrograms of mercury per adult dose and 12.5

micrograms of mercury per pediatric dose. If you

suffered any of the following symptoms following your

flu vaccine, please call Health Advocacy in the Public

Interest at 641-7413 and we will help you report your

reaction to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System:

stroke, kidney problems, severe abdominal pain, skin irritation/

dermatitis/eczema, irritation of eyes and mucous membranes,

irritation of upper respiratory tract, pain or numbness in extremities,

or jaundice. These are all symptoms of mercury poisoning.

FLU VACCINE AND PRESERVATIVES

When public health advertises that their flu

vaccine contains a preservative, they mean

Thimerosal. Thimerosal is almost 50% mercury

by weight. Mercury is the most toxic substance on earth next

to plutonium. Each adult dose contains 25 micrograms

of mercury; each pediatric dose contains 12.5

micrograms. According to EPA guidelines, you need to

weigh 551 pounds to safely ingest, not inject, 25

micrograms of mercury, or 225.5 pounds to safely

ingest 12.5 micrograms. How much do you or your

child weigh? Call 641-7413 or email hapi@...

for more information.
