Conversations at water coolers, coffee shops and social networking sites are all a buzz about who has the flu, how many kids are out in your school and whether you and your children are going to get the flu/H1N1 flu shot. There are a lot of opinions but here is an interview with Dr. Kent Holtorf, doctor and infectious disease expert, on Fox News talking about the risks of the flu shot, the lack of testing and that he would not give the vaccination to his children. Dr. Holtorf says the H1N1 vaccine has 25,000 times the level of mercury proven toxic if it was in food or water. Here is his interview:
Dr. Oz took the flu shot on his show, however he also disclosed that it is mandated because of his employment. In another interview, he disclosed that his wife and children will not be taking the vaccine.
If you decide to vaccinate, ask your doctor about thimerosal (a common preservative and known neurotoxin) and ask for thimerosal free vaccinations. The children’s flu vaccine contains 12.5 mcg of mercury. According to the National Vaccine Information Center, this level of mercury is not considered safe for persons weighing less than 275 lbs. The American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention urged vaccine makers to remove thimerosal because of potential neurological damage.
I believe it is a personal choice to vaccinate but I will be abstaining from the Flu Vaccine for myself and family.
