My doctor told me that there was a problem...?

Question

My doctor told me that there was a problem with the hep b vaccine that they found later on. So my question is when did they "re-do" the vaccine? i got the vaccine in 1998 so is this ok?

If you are wanting to know the truth, ask your doctor if there is any thimerosal(mercury) in you vaccine.

It only takes 35 mcg of mercury to kill a rabbit. The little bit in your thermometer is enough to pollute a 20 acre lake. Thimerosal has been used as a vaccine preservative since 1930's. Until recently, it was generally viewed as safe, reliable and a defender against bacterial and fungal contaminants. It's sometimes added during production as a guarantee against contaminations. Thus, no need to manufacture the vaccines in a sterile environment.

Thimerosal contains 49.6% mercury by weight. At high exposure, mercury causes neurotoxicity in the human body. Especially in that of fetus and small infants who's brains are still underdeveloped. However, because of thimerosal's track record against contaminants, it's incredibly hard for manufacturers, and all "powers that be" to get rid of it. (This knowledge should give one a good concept of the Russian Roulette when messing with bacterium and viruses. The game gets even more dangerous-potentially fatal- when involving one of the most toxic substances of the earth, second to plutonium: Thimerosal).

The Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), In 1999, learned that thimerosal had surfaced as a safety issue in Europe. One of their jobs, appointed in 1999 was to add up the total amount of mercury given to children through vaccines. Shortly after that they found thimerosal to be in 30 licensed pediatric vaccines. According to their calculations, a 6 month fully vaccinated child receives 75 mcg from three doses of DTaP, 75 mcg from three doses of the Hib, and 37.5 from three doses of Hepatitis B. This totals to 187.5 mcg of mercury. Conclusion was eventually made that mercury intake from vaccines is above the limit set by EPA for children under 6 months.

The findings were incredibly serious considering that millions of children had been and still were receiving mercury at much higher levels deemed safe by EPA. However, this serious concern was muddled because for the following reasons: 1-three federal agencies that published mercury safety guidelines were in disagreement (EPA, FDA, and ATSDR), 2- EPA's guidelines were based on a single does of mercury which exposed 81 children in Iraq while in utero, 3-CBER's finding was clouded by differences in the nature of exposure between the 81 children in Iraq and those vaccinated.

No one could explain how the differences in exposure could effect the potential neurotoxicity of mercury. Fear of CBER's findings reaching the already growing concerned public became a concern for the big wigs. If this information got out into the public, parents would find more reason to make more noise against the immunization program. CDC downplayed these concerns and any idea to educate pediatric physicians of the mercury content and CBER's findings. They loathed the idea of calling some vaccines "bad" (thimerosal-containing vaccines) and some "good" (thimerosal free vaccines). However, Hasley of John Hopkins University (advocate for "safe vaccines") disagreed. They feared the potential for unending future lawsuits. Argument over delaying the Hepatitis B vaccine, normally given at birth, arose. The CDC Hepatitis branch saw this as trouble since they'd been working on getting Hepatitis B for routine vaccination. Their fear was that the Hep B vaccination rates would slide. That alone was a threat because some states were under pressure from vaccination protestors to drop Hep B for school registration. Thus, a furious case against delaying the Hep B vaccine was underway. CDC wouldn't stop raging about the annual cases of Hep B in children under 10 years of age. This led to the argument of removing thimerosal from vaccines. Hep b manufacturers do have thimerosal free vaccines. However, they are more expensive.

I find CDC's attitude towards the human population revolting. Especially that of our precious babies.

Have your doctor do a Hep. B titer It is a blood test to see if you blood levels are where they should be You may not need another Hep B shot at all.
