so what you are saying that mercury is safe to consume? i was told at school that mercury is poisonous.
what's insane and stupid about that?
Lets put it this way every time you've ever eaten anything with fish in it, you've consumed mercury, and if you like fish and chips or fish products you probably consumer a lot more yearly than you'll ever be exposed to from vaccines (and from memory if you eat fish in some countries you'll be exposed to even more than we are here).
Mercury is dangerous mainly if inhaled or ingested in fairly large amounts or over a long period, a few milligrams in an injection is nothing.
There are dangerous levels of pretty much any chemical, however a lot of "poisonous" chemicals are also safe and if not directly beneficial, necessary for certain chemical processes and safe at the levels used.
Your comment shows what is a fairly typical response from someone who it appears doesn't understand toxicity levels (which from memory was something covered briefly in GCSE science), chlorine is really nasty if you're exposed to it in some forms or too much of it in others, yet every single time you drink or have a wash you're being exposed to it in tiny amounts, and if you ever go to a swimming pool you'll be exposed to higher levels as it's used to make water safe for use.
