RFK Jr. is being blackballed for asking the wrong “right” questions. He has worked for our environment and vaccine safety. He has brought up issues such as the military industrial complex (because nobody else will) so…..

I have heard RFK talk about thimerosal that was used as a preservative in vaccines. He has said that it is not good. If it’s ok why was thimerosal removed from vaccines given to children in 1999? the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was required by law to assess the amount of mercury in all the products the agency oversees, not just vaccines. The U.S. Public Health Service decided that as much mercury as possible should be removed from vaccines, and thimerosal was the only source of mercury in vaccines. Thimerosal was taken out of childhood vaccines in the United States in 2001.

Thimerosal is still in some flu vaccines that children may receive. To produce enough flu vaccine for the entire country, some of it must be put into multi-dose vials, because it is possible for microbes to get into the vial. So, this preservative is needed to prevent contamination of the vial when individual doses are drawn from it. Flu vaccine in single-dose vials that does not contain thimerosal also is available. However, influenza vaccine has little or no efficacy and a high risk of side effects.

The childhood vaccines that used to contain thimerosal as a preservative are now put into single-dose vials, so no preservative is needed. It doesn’t even pass the laugh test that it wasn’t a “problem” but they took it out.
