Re: Mercury induced symtoms are profitable

The article, " Doctors for mercury " (1) is appreciated. Despite

mercury's well documented adverse effects, why do some in the medical

and research communities continue to recommend thimerosal-containing

vaccines? A recent essay by George Monbiot supports a likely answer

(2). With saddened spirit, I accept that pharmaceutical companies

want thimerosal to be injected into as many pregnant women, infants,

and toddlers as possible because the symptoms so induced require

medications which are highly profitable.

That damaged health would be a corporate goal and that various

academics would defend injurious substances have precedent (eg, 2).

As presented in former NEJM editor Marcia Angell's book (3),

pharmaceutical companies have enough yearly net profit so as to

virtually own influential politicians such as Frist.

We are living amidst an orthodoxy rooted in patenting toxins and

medications and in allowing of toxins into the biosphere and into our

bodies because the illnesses so induced augment pharmaceutical profits.

Were a comparison enacted, the injecting of thimerosal would probably

be found far more effective at inducing symptoms than various low-dose

exposures such as pesticides, air pollution, PBDEs, etc.
