A survey of over 9,000 Americans found that an overwhelming majority of

people had no idea their flu shots contain mercury. "More than 75
percent of Americans feel a mercury-containing flu shot should not be
given to a pregnant woman or a child," said Lisa Handley, a founding
parent of PutChildrenFirst.org, the group that organized the survey.
Handley's own son, Jamison, had an adverse reaction to a flu shot
containing mercury in 2003. "I know firsthand how life-changing a flu
shot with mercury can be, since our son began his regression into
autism after his flu shot." In 1999, government agencies called for the

removal of Thimerosal, the mercury-based preservative in most vaccines.

Then, in 2001, the American Academy of Pediatrics stated that, "mercury

in all of its forms is toxic to the fetus and children." Despite these
actions, 90 percent of this season's flu vaccines still contain
Thimerosal.
