There are two kinds of influenza vaccines (both regular flu and swine flu) available this year - one contains Thimerosal (a mercury based preservative) and the other does not. As a general rule, the vaccines that come in single dose packages do not contain mercury, while the multi-dose vials do. However, some clinics pre-fill syringes from multi-dose vials. Thus, you need to verify that the syringe was filled by the vaccine's manufacturer and not by anyone else, if you are offered a flu-shot dose in a syringe.
The amount of mercury in the Thimerosal preserved vaccines is about 25 micrograms. The EPA safe dose (confirmed by the National Academy of Science in 2001) for exposure to methyl mercury that should not be exceeded is .1 microgram per kilogram of body weight per day. This standard is set for "methyl" mercury. Neither FDA nor EPA has set a "safe" level for "ethyl" mercury, the active ingredient in Thimerosal, but the FDA considers them equivalent in its risk evaluation. Although they are similar organic molecules, studies show that an equivalent dose of "ethyl" mercury can actually deposit more mercury in the brain. So, if a child receives a shot with 25 micrograms of mercury, the child would have to weigh 550 pounds to remain within the recommended safe level of exposure. With regard to injecting these vaccines into pregnant women, we know that some of the mercury will cross the placental barrier to the fetus. We tell pregnant women not to eat fish, and yet our government is not warning them about having mercury injected into their bodies while they are pregnant. In my opinion, this is inexcusable.
If you receive the swine flu vaccine this year, be sure to keep the card they give you, and make sure the card lists the manufacturer and lot number of the vaccine. But if you are injured by the vaccine, you will not be able to go to the no fault vaccine court that is available for other vaccine injuries. You will have to apply for compensation to a special program, from which there is no appeal and no right to pursue any kind of civil litigation. The industry demand for complete immunity is yet another reason to doubt government claims that mercury-containing vaccines are "safe." CDC admitted at a meeting of the National Vaccine Advisory Committee meeting on September 15 that none of the safety trials of the H1N1 vaccines would be completed on either pregnant women or infants prior to launch of these vaccines, yet they still "believe" them to be safe.
If you try to get a mercury free flu vaccine and are unable to do so or if this letter has reached you after you already received your flu shot and you discover the one you received had mercury in it, please contact the people at CoMeD (The Coalition for Mercury-free Drugs) by emailing them your story and detailed contact information using the "Contact Us" link provided on the CoMeD website: http://www.Mercury-freeDrugs.org
Since our public health officials do not seem concerned about protecting the pregnant women and children in this country, I am forced to ask that everyone who gets this message forward it to all your family and friends.

Is this the same Shoemaker, a lawyer and business associate of the Geier's, who threw a hissy fit when details of the vast sums he collects from (usually unsuccessful) vaccine hearing claims was published?
The same Shoemaker who set up the "Institute for Chronic Illnesses" as a tax-exempt private non operating foundation to finance "medical research" conducted by Geier and son?
The Shoemaker whose attempts to suppress his critics led to a judge saying:-
"he [Shoemaker] has no right: (1) to serve a grossly overly broad subpoena intended to harass; (2) to go on a “fishing trip” for anything to support a new suit for defamation ...; and (3) to fail his duties under Rule 45(c)(1). "
"Clifford J. Shoemaker’s action is an abuse of legal process, a waste of judicial resources and an unnecessary waste of the time and expense to the purported deponent."
"As a sanction from this court, Clifford J. Shoemaker is ordered to attend within three months, a continuing legal education program on ethics..."
Shoemaker probably thinks ethics is an English county to the north east of London but don't you think there might just be a small financial motive behind his exhortation to "contact the people at CoMeD" when one of the "people" is Shoemaker himself and the others the peripatetic Geiers?

You are correct. Cliffie Shoemaker did all of that, and was censured by a Federal Judge.
He is a lackey for the Geiers. That is not something a normal person would aspire to.

Could be, but that does not make the new vacs safe. Peter, PLEASE go and get your vaccination as soon as you can. Get two if they will give it to you. Thank you.
You are getting confused. A lecture on ethics (actually a whole course on the subject) is something the author of your quoted piece was forced to attend by a court.
For your education it would have been ethical for you (or the author, but that might be pushing things too far) to have explained :-
1. The "letter" was an advertisement.
2. The author makes a handy living out of furthering a mercury scare.
3. Much of the "evidence" supporting his claims comes from business associates.
4. He get paid (very well) even when he fails in court. The claimant does not get a penny.
5. The company he is promoting, CoMeD, has a business association with him.

All of which is in the public record. If the likes of Shoemaker are as squeaky clean as you seem to think why do they find it necessary to attempt to hide their commercial interests so assiduously? It makes it impossible for them to claim the moral high ground. Is avarice above honesty for them?

Why did Shoemaker try to stifle Kathleen Seidel's free speech when she wrote about his antics?
Newswise - According to new research from Northeastern University pharmacy professor Richard Deth and colleagues from the University of Nebraska, Tufts, and Johns Hopkins University, there is an apparent link between exposure to certain neurodevelopmental toxins and an increased possibility of developing neurological disorders including autism and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. The research - the first to offer an explanation for possible causes of two increasingly common childhood neurological disorders - is published today in the April 2004 issue of the journal Molecular Psychiatry.
Though some speculation exists regarding this link, Deth and his colleagues found that exposure to toxins, such as ethanol and heavy metals (including lead, aluminum and the ethylmercury-containing preservative thimerosal) potently interrupt growth factor signaling, causing adverse effects on methylation reactions (i.e. the transfer of carbon atoms). Methylation, in turn, plays a significant role in regulating normal DNA function and gene expression, and is critical to proper neurological development in infants and children. Scientists and practitioners have identified an increase in diagnoses of autism and ADHD in particular, though the reasons why are largely unknown.
In their work, the scientists found that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and the neurotransmitter dopamine both stimulated folate- dependent methylation pathways in neuronal cells. At the same time they noted that compounds like thimerosal, ethanol and metals (like lead and mercury) effectively inhibited these same biochemical pathways at concentrations that are typically found following vaccination or other sources of exposure.
By better understanding what happens when infants and children are exposed to these materials, the work of Deth and his colleagues helps to explain how environmental contact with metals and administration of certain vaccines may lead to serious disorders that manifest themselves during childhood, including autism and ADHD.
"Scientists certainly acknowledge that exposure to neurotoxins like ethanol and heavy metals can cause developmental disorders, but until now, the precise mechanisms underlying their toxicity have not been known," said Deth. "The recent increase in the incidence of autism led us to speculate that environmental exposures, including vaccine additives might contribute to the triggering of this disorder."
Thimerosal, which was largely phased out in the U.S. and in Europe starting in 2000, was often used for its preservative abilities in multi-dose units of vaccines for diseases like hepatitis, whooping cough, tetanus and diptheria.
Today, most vaccines carry only trace amounts of it, according to the CDC. But in larger, multi-dose vials of these vaccines, often shipped to and used in third world countries, thimerosal is still very common. Multi-dose flu vaccines still contain thimerosal.
Additionally, the scientists recently obtained more insight into the mechanism by which thimerosal interferes with folate-dependent methylation.
It acts by inhibiting the biosynthesis of the active form of vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin), which is of particular interest because doctors treating autistic kids are having good success with the administration of methycobalamin.

Impfkritiker Was man über sie wissen sollte, wenn man überleben will
Diese Site ist gewidmet denen, deren Leben durch Impfgegner zerstört wurde. Sie ist gewidmet den Eltern und den Kindern - und vor allem jenen, die jetzt sterben, sterben an einer Krankheit, die durch eine Impfung hätte verhindert werden können.
latest developments:
Zwei Kinder sterben wegen Impfgegnern an SSPE Two children die with SSPE because of an anti-vaccinationist pair
In Germany we now have an ultimate extreme case: the death of two children in series, both with SSPE, both infections caused by the very same incident, both are victims of a pair of German anti-vaccinationists.
The German pediatricians' society has a web-site, where they publish this message:
Ein 10-jähriges Mädchen aus Bad Salzuflen ist an einer chronischen Maserngehirnentzündung erkrankt.
Die so genannte Subakute Sklerosierende Panenzephalitis - kurz SSPE - kann als Spätfolge einer Masernerkrankung auftreten und verläuft praktisch immer tödlich. Der Fall der kleinen Natalie ist vor allem deshalb bemerkenswert, da es im gleichen Ort einen zweiten Fall einer SSPE-Erkrankung gibt (Michael Giesbrecht, 9 Jahre - Kinderaerzte-im-Netz berichtete), http://www.kinderaerzte-im-netz.de/bvkj/aktuelles1/show.php3?id=1517&...
die offensichtlich den gleichen Ursprung hat. Beide Kinder waren im Säuglingsalter an Masern erkrankt - angesteckt hatten sie sich beim routinemäßigen Besuch eines Kinder- und Jugendarztes, um die anstehenden Vorsorgeuntersuchungen durchzuführen. Die Infektion ging von einem 11-jährigen Jungen aus, der am gleichen Tag im Frühjahr 1999 mit unspezifischen Beschwerden in der Praxis war und bei dem sich erst am darauf folgenden Tag die typischen Masernsymptome zeigten. Insgesamt hatte dieser Junge, dessen Eltern die Masernimpfung ablehnten, in dieser Praxis 6 weitere Kinder, darunter drei Säuglinge mit Masern infiziert. Bei zwei dieser Kinder, die heute 9 und 10 Jahre alt sind, wurde inzwischen eine SSPE-Erkrankung diagnostiziert. "Eine solche unerklärliche Häufung von SSPE-Erkrankungen ist in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur bisher nicht beschrieben worden. Diese Fälle sind nicht nur sehr tragisch für die betroffenen Kinder und deren Familien - sie zeigen auch sehr deutlich, dass Masern keine harmlose Kinderkrankheit sind. Besonders Säuglinge, die ja noch nicht geimpft werden können, haben ein erhöhtes Risiko an dieser gefährlichen Spätfolge der Masern zu versterben. Es ist daher besonders wichtig, Maserninfektionen bei Säuglingen zu verhindern", warnt Prof. Dr. med. Reinhard Berner vom Zentrum für Kinder- und Jugendmedizin am Universitätsklinikum Freiburg und Vorsitzender der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Pädiatrische Infektiologie (DGPI). Auch eine britische Studie zeigt, dass die Gefahr für Säuglinge besonders groß ist. Demnach erkrankt etwa 1 von 5.000 Kindern, die in den ersten 12 Lebensmonaten die Masern durchmachen, im Laufe seines weiteren Lebens an dieser tödlichen Gehirnentzündung. Nach Informationen des Berufsverbandes der Kinder- und Jugendärzte in Deutschland (BVKJ) wurden seit 2003 insgesamt 18 Fälle von SSPE in Deutschland diagnostiziert - darunter auch sechs Fälle aus Nordrhein-Westfalen (NRW). 17 dieser Kinder waren im Säuglingsalter an Masern erkrankt. Während der letzten großen Masernepidemie in NRW im Jahre 2006 waren mehr als 1.600 Menschen, meist Kinder und Jugendliche, an Masern erkrankt - nach Angaben des Landesinstitut für den Öffentlichen Gesundheitsdienst (lögd) darunter auch über 100 Säuglinge.
Vollständiger Impfstatus als Voraussetzung für Kindergärten und Kindertagesstätten (Kita) BVKJ und DGPI fordern, dass alle Kinder vor dem Besuch einer Gemeinschaftseinrichtung alle von der Ständigen Impfkommission (STIKO) empfohlenen Impfungen nachweisen müssen. "Gerade vor dem Hintergrund, dass zunehmend auch neue Kita-Plätze für Säuglinge und Kleinkinder geschaffen werden, ist es eine Verpflichtung für die Träger dieser Einrichtungen, die gesundheitliche Sicherheit derer zu gewährleisten, die sich selbst nicht schützen können. Das gilt natürlich auch für Kinder, die aufgrund einer Immunschwäche oder einer Krebserkrankung nicht geimpft werden können. In allen Ländern, in denen dieses Modell - No Vaccination No School - angewandt wird, sind die Masern eliminiert. Und damit verschwindet auch die SSPE", erläutert Berner. Kritisiert wird von den Experten insbesondere das neue Gesetz zur frühen Bildung und Förderung von Kindern - kurz KiBiz -, das in NRW im Zentrum des verstärkten Ausbaus des Betreuungsangebotes für unter Dreijährige steht. "Wir haben mehrfach dafür gerungen, dass im Gesetzentwurf ein Passus verankert wird, der eine Impfpasskontrolle als Voraussetzung für einen Platz in der Kindertagesstätte oder im Kindergarten festschreibt. Aber die Politiker hier in NRW scheinen beratungsresistent zu sein. Noch immer sterben Kinder in Deutschland an Masern. Es ist eine Schande. Alle Experten wissen, wie diese gefährliche Krankheit in Deutschland ausgerottet werden könnte - doch das KiBiz-Gesetz wird von ahnungslosen Politikern aus dem Ministerium für Generationen, Familien, Frauen und Integration verantwortet, die auch die Position des Gesundheitsministeriums von NRW nicht berücksichtigt haben", kritisiert Dr. Thomas Fischbach, Landesvorsitzender der Kinder- und Jugendärzte in Nordrhein.
WHO kritisiert Deutschland
Das von der Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) vorgegebene Ziel - die Eliminierung der Masern in Deutschland bis 2010 - sieht der Berufsverband der Kinder- und Jugendärzte inzwischen außer Reichweite. Seit Anfang des Jahres sind in Deutschland bereits über 750 Menschen an Masern erkrankt. Kritik kommt daher auch von der WHO. "Um Masern auszurotten, braucht man eine klare Impfstrategie, die alle Kinder im zweiten Lebensjahr erreicht. Gerade in Gemeinschaftseinrichtungen können sich Masern schnell verbreiten. Ungeimpfte Kinder haben nicht nur selbst ein hohes Erkrankungsrisiko - sie gefährden auch die Gesundheit anderer. Die Regelung wonach alle Kinder gegen Masern geimpft sein müssen, bevor sie eine Gemeinschaftseinrichtung besuchen dürfen, hat sich in vielen Ländern als sehr erfolgreich erwiesen. Denn noch immer sterben weltweit etwa 240.000 Kinder jedes Jahr an Masern - es ist eine gefährliche Erkrankung", so Dr. Nedret Emiroglu vom WHO-Regionalbüro für Europa. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----

In short: In 1999 in a German town an 11 year old boy ill with measles is in the waiting room of a pediatrician. A mother with her baby Micha is also there. The baby Micha catches measles. Some years later Micha has SSPE. Today Micha is still alive, but is under 24-hour care and gets morphine.
In the very same pediatrician practise on the very same day another baby is in the waiting room. This baby, Natalie, also catches measles from the first mentioned boy (some 4 other children also did).
Today Natalie has SSPE.
The boy, who brought the measles into the waiting room, is the child of anti-vaccinationists, who refused measles vaccination.
The risk of SSPE is MUCH higher than all the time was claimed. According to a study about a year ago the risk of SSPE is about 1:2000.
Risk of death by measles directly is about 1:500 to 1:1000.
This makes the total risk for death caused by measles in total to about 1:400.
The German Robert Koch Institut publishes false data. These false data the Robert Koch Institut spreads, and the media and health agencies ("Gesundheitsamt") transport these false data without questioning them.
Complaints with the Robert Koch Institut are useless - I tried that.
Complaints with the newspapers are useless - they tell you, that they received the material from health agencies.
Mrs. von der Leyen, Minister in Germany, is a medical doctor. Nonetheless she transports the false data. Complaints with her office were useless. They "answer" with some childish babble they spill out every day. They do not understand the facts, they are clueless.
Here is an example of false data, just published today (concerning the aforementioned two coupled cases of SSPE!) by the German "Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen":
Der Berufsverband der Kinder- und Jugendärzte (BVKJ) hat einen vollständigen Impfschutz für Kinder als Voraussetzung für den Kita-Besuch gefordert. Da für Säuglinge und Kleinkinder immer mehr Betreuungsplätze entstünden und diese Gruppe besonders gefährdet sei, müsse etwa eine Masernimpfung Pflicht werden, forderte der Verband am Mittwoch in einer Mitteilung.
Hintergrund des neuerlichen Verbandsaufrufs ist die Erkrankung zweier Kinder im lippischen Bad Salzuflen an der unheilbaren und tödlich verlaufenden Gehirnentzündung SSPE als Folge einer Maserninfektion.
Beim Kinderarzt angesteckt
Die beiden Kinder in Bad Salzuflen - ein zehnjähriges
Clifford Shoemaker is by far the BEST vaccine injury attorney in the country. He has given a few parents I know a little bit of "justice" from Pharma induced injuries to their babies.
Very caring, compassionate, INTLIGENT human being.
I regret voting for Obama, I thought and hoped he would be for CHANGE, of course he isnt.

Setting aside the probability that caring, compassionate and lawyer is almost certainly an oxymoron I'm a bit puzzled as to how you come to apply that description to someone who:-
Writes infomercial without bothering to tell people of his commercial work in this area and which directs them to organisations from which he profits.
Misused his position as a lawyer to attempt to intimidate and silence his critics for daring to expose the money he makes from his anti-vaccine activities. An activity so repulsive that even the likes of Kirby and Olmsted criticised it and which eventually led to his censure by a court and forced attendance on a ethics training course.
As for intelligent - his scientific "advisors" and business partners are the Geiers. Associating with that pair isn't exactly a sign of intelligence. Cunning maybe, but not intelligence. As one judge said of one of them "...[a] professional witness in areas for which he has no training, expertise, and experience," whose testimony was "intellectually dishonest," and "nothing more than an egregious example of blatant, result-oriented testimony."
