This is the reason that people without a chemistry/pharmacology/medical background shouldn't speak out against something they don't understand, i.e. vaccines.

I recently saw a tweet from Jim Carrey saying "Mercury in fish is dangerous but forcing all of our children to be injected with mercury in thimerosol is no risk. Make sense?"

They are very different. Mercury in fish is methyl mercury and the mercury in vaccines comes from thiomersal. Thiomersal is metabolized in your body to ethyl mercury. First off everyone is exposed to methyl mercury through various sources (mainly your diet). The half-life if methyl mercury is very long causing it to build up in your body. Methyl mercury is not water soluble and very tough for your body to excrete. That build up can cause some bad effects in the body. On the other hand ethyl mercury doesn't accumulate in your body. Ethyl mercury is water soluble and much easier for your body to excrete. The half life of methyl mercury is much shorter and doesn't stick around long enough or accumulate to cause any bad effects. On top of that, the amount of thiomersal in vaccines is very small, too small to do any damage in your body. Lastly, thiomersal has been removed from vaccines for children.

So why is thiomersal used? Thiomersal is used as a preservative in multi-use vaccine vials to prevent microbial growth. It is there to protect you.

Another common ingredient that is attacked is formaldehyde. Guess what, your body produces a large amount of formaldehyde on a daily basis in metabolic processes. The amount used in vaccines is so small that your body doesn't know the difference. The amount in a vaccine is about 50-70 times lower than what is already circulating in a newborn baby. The amount of formaldehyde your body produces only increases with age and weight.

The last time you said methyl i think you meant ethyl, but that highlights another factor of these conspiracy theories. People Will grasp onto a clear typo or error in a social media post and build an entire movement on it. Look! He let the truth slip!!!!!!!!!

You don’t need a background in chemistry to know that you shouldn’t put poison in your body.

I don’t understand why vaxxed ppl are so worried about un- vaxxed ppl. If you have a vax your safe right? Us anti vaxxers should be worried.

You do realize anything in this world can be a poison right? Water can be a poison. If you drink enough water, you can flush all the electrolytes out of your body and cause your brain to swell that could lead to death. It's called water intoxication. Are you going to stop drinking water now?

Here is a case study where a woman passed away from water intoxication: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1770067/

The moral of the story is that the dose makes the poison. Any substance on this earth can be a poison in the correct dose over the requisite time.

Vaccines don't have close to high enough levels to "poison" you. I care because it's a public heath scenario. It's the people that don't vaccinate are the reasons we have outbreaks of measles, polio, etc... Yes, there is still outbreaks of polio.

Let me put this into perspective. My twins were born in August of 2016. During the months of April-September 2017 there was a severe measles outbreak in MN. We had to limit where we could bring our kids, who they came into contact with, etc... They were too young to be vaccinated. They were extremely high risk. There were a few kids in our neighborhood who were diagnosed with the measles, so yes we had to be extremely cautious. All of this was preventable by a simple vaccine. All of those kids that came down with the measles could have been spared from the pain and any long term effects (some are now blind) by a simple vaccination. The day they turned 1 we vaccinated them and 30 days later got their booster. I know you really don't care though.
