How come doctors/scientists put mercury in the vaccines?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Interesting question: The trace amounts of mercury in vaccines was used to reduce germ contaminants possible in multiple dose vials. It is a benign form of mercury, burdened by sharing a name with a toxic form. Like ethyl alcohol is enjoyed by many but a tablespoonful of methyl alcohol will kill you.The mercury was removed from most us made vaccines after the epa issued lifetime exposure limits, not because of harm.
