Nice curiosity gap there. Where did the mercury come from?
- thom 7y agoGoing to assume given the way this is phrased that the poster means a vaccination.
- everly 7y agoIMO he is clearly implying it came from a vaccine(s) but he is trying to do it without being seen as an anti-vaxxer.
- p1necone 7y agoSurely you'd have to have a lot of vaccines for it to compare to the amount you get from other sources (mostly seafood afaik?)
- losteric 7y agoYes. One vaccine contains less mercury than one (average) serving of fish, and the mercury is in a less toxic form.
- manifestsilence 7y agoNot even just a "form". Thimerisol is a compound. I like to compare it to saying we shouldn't eat table salt because it contains chlorine. Now, as to the safety of Thimerisol, obviously that has to be judged on its own merits, but just because a compound "contains" a certain kind of atom, by itself means nothing.
- wavepruner 7y agoWhy would I be an anti-vaxxer? Mercury is not in any childhood vaccines.
- everly 7y agoBecause mercury toxicity is a common claim of anti-vaxxers and because you implied the alleged source of the mercury which caused your CFS is something that upsets most people. Doesn't seem like that much of a stretch to think that you're referring to vaccines. If you were less weirdly cryptic about it, we could just have a normal exchange and perhaps I'd learn something new. Perhaps you instead believe it's from seafood and people don't like hearing that they shouldn't be eating fish, IDK. What exactly is the source of the mercury that you're referring to? You accuse others of not being able to have rational/intelligent conversation in this thread, yet you haven't even stated your basic premise, just trolled and then acted like a victim when people got annoyed with your coyness.
