From New York Times bestselling author Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., comes a hard look at how the mercury-containing Thimerosal is making vaccines dangerous.

Over a decade ago, following a sharp rise in developmental disorders such as autism and ADHD, the mercury-containing preservative Thimerosal was widely believed to have been eliminated from vaccine supplies in the US and abroad. However, dangerous quantities of Thimerosal continue to be used, posing a significant threat to public health and leading to a crisis of faith in vaccine safety.

In this groundbreaking book, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., examines the research literature on Thimerosal and makes a very clear statement about its potentially dangerous effects. In the past, the CDC, FDA, NIH, and AAP, as well as the US Congress, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the US Department of Agriculture, the European Medicines Agency, and the California Environmental Protection Agency have expressed concerns over the use of Thimerosal in vaccines. But despite the many voices calling for action, the media and policy makers have repeatedly failed to adequately address the issue.

Now, with Thimerosal: Let the Science Speak, the goal is to educate parents, doctors, and health policy makers, to eliminate this toxic chemical from the world’s vaccine supplies, to move toward safer alternatives, and to maintain or increase vaccination rates critical to the United States and developing nations. With safer options available, parents shouldn’t have to worry about the devastating effects of vaccinating their children.

    The subject of vaccinations – perhaps more so than any other in society – has an overwhelming polarizing effect. It’s quite unfortunate because there are a lot more than just two sides to the issue of vaccinations.

    The establishment would like people to believe there are only two sides to the issue, the pro-vaccine and anti-vaccine sides. That’s because it makes it simpler to control the populace when most people fall for the illusion of there just being two camps. This is classic use of the left-right paradigm, which has countless permutations and uses for the establishment.

    In any case, as someone who is a great advocate of informed consent, this book resonates quite well with me.

    The reason is because although Big Pharma/Big Medica espouses that vaccines are safe, the evidence that has been accumulated by this author and countless other researcher over time indicates otherwise. That alone pulverizes the fantasy that most people are being informed of all potential data/issues by Doctors and the medical establishment.

    Thimerosal – Let The Science Speak – The Evidence Supporting The Immediate Removal Of Mercury – A Known Neurotoxin – From Vaccines by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. carries out a veritable multi-pronged evisceration of all the flawed data that has been orchestrated regarding Thimerosal’s alleged safety by Big Medica & the establishment.

    Citing hundreds – yes, hundreds – of data points, Kennedy shows more than ample evidence as to the numerous dangers of vaccines with the preservative Thimerosal, even at low doses.

    Not only that, but the author cogently shows the science behind why Thimerosal has been classified as a neurotoxin. That’s the bad news.

    The good news is that fortunately it not hard for the removal of Thimerosal to take place.

    Coupled with that author also makes a sound argument that changing vaccines to single-doses rather than using multi does would actually end in the elimination of the preservatives 2-PE and Thimerosal. Furthermore, as the author states, the cost-effectiveness of single dose vaccines compared to their counterparts , could also be superior.

    In conclusion, individual health should ultimately be the choice of the individuals and parents, and not something to be rammed down people’s throats by the state. To that effect, this book destroys what conventional scientists have been espousing for decades – that Thimerosal is in fact safe.

    As the book showcases, nothing could be further from the truth.

    Whether or not people are for/against vaccinations, EVERYONE should be pro-education, and this book helps do just that – educate people about the many dangers of the neurotoxin Thimerosal.

    Parents, teachers, doctors, nurses, reporters, politicians et al. should read this book in order not only to become cognizant of the notable dangers of Thimersoal – which include brain damage and countless other issues, among other things – but to come to terms with the fact that we as a society have been lied too for so long, it’ s time to put ignorance to rest. After all, the health of your loved ones is counting on it.

    In this book, Robert Kennedy Jr. explores the research literature on thimerosal and its potentially dangerous effects as a neurotoxin. Over the years, all of the major health organizations have expressed concerns over thimerosal, but the US lags behind the rest of the world in completely removing this toxin from all vaccines that can poison the most vulnerable: children and fetuses. On page 97-98, a member of the FDA noted that the agency must quickly inform pediatricians that the products have too much mercury, to be open with consumers about why this was not caught earlier, and show contrition, be honest now and move forward to replace these products. Otherwise the public could lose faith in the recommendations of the public health service."

    I think many have lost faith, as predicted, in the recommendations and forced immunizations by the public health services. In 2003 (p. 100) Congress called this institutional malfeasance for misplaced protectionism of the pharmaceutical industry.

    The WHO is more concerned about using multiple dose vaccine vials (that include themerosol) which are less expensive than the non-thermerosol single dose vaccines, to not jeopardize their international vaccine efforts, ultimate health of the children be damned.

    Thank you to Mr. Kennedy for taking up this battle that has growing support among parents. I cringe every time my grandchildren receive vaccines.

    An incredibly readable and important book. Every parent, caregiver, medical worker, politician and therapist should read the scientific evidence about the ingredients in vaccines that make them unhealthy and dangerous for ourselves and our children. I would bet it also applies to our animals.

    Other countries seem to take a more sensible approach to their vaccines and vaccination schedules. However, in the US, the tail is wagging the dog and the regulatory agencies have ignored scientific evidence and our lawmakers have backed them up to the point we are poisoning ourselves.

    The problems with the studies that promote dangerous vaccines are completely explained, as are the conflicts of interest of the researchers who did the studies. As Kennedy explains, this should not be a pro-vaccine or anti-vaccine issue but a safe vaccine versus dangerous vaccines that anyone with half a brain should not support or accept.

    This book is very well laid out, very easy to read and understand. It gives you all you need so you may ask intelligent questions to make your own informed decisions.

    In my opinion, the only people who could give this book a less than 4 star review either have not read it or are being paid by the drug companies making fortunes from making us ill.

    Incredible! A book for those that refused to be labeled "antivaxxers." A book for those that are pro safe vaccines! This book breaks down the IOM's hasty decision to exclude biological studies into a causal relationship between vaccines and neurological defects. Instead, epidemiological studies were given the most weight and such studies had high thimerosal baselines or excluded children that were most susceptible in the data. With these botched misconstrued guidelines, can we trust the recommendation for aluminum adjuvants?

  • Yaser Had

    Best I have ever read so far on vaccines. I’m super glad that I never vaccinated my kids and never will. I would recommend watching a documentary named “ The Truth About Vaccines “.

  • Fransu

    This was a very well researched book that was clearly written to inform the public of the dangers of Thimerosal a form of mercury that's used as a preservatives in our flu vaccines. Robert Kennedy Jr. has done a fantastic job in gathering information and examples on his quest for the immediate removal of thimerosal. After reading this book it is a bit unsettling to think about the rising cases of autism today that's linked with the amount of vaccines that potentially have Thimerosal. Great read for anybody that would like to know more about this topic.

  • Jessica Nyhoff

    A must read. Although he is vilified in the press & censored on social media, RFK Jr. backs up all his claims with peer reviewed articles, interviews with doctors & scientists. Unfortunately history has shown that silence can be bought & it seems the only thing that matters is money.

    Would like to have finished this book. Audible decided to remove it. Very disappointing.

  • Shane Linetty

    Very informative, but is a hard read because it is written like an academic book.
