Really? Source this please, because according to wikipedia, the UK Vaccination
of 1840 first introduced vaccinations, which were made mandatory by the 1853
act. (<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccination_Act#The_1840_Act>)

That seems to coincide pretty well with the drop in diseases, actually.

I think a lot of this disagreement could be cleared up if there were studies
done on the long term effects of low doses of mercury.

Mercury is bioaccumalitive and so I think such studies are justified. Why is
no one doing this?

Also from a business perspective if there is such concern about methylmercury
in vaccines why doesn't someone bring to market vaccines that use a different
(more natural?) preservative? It seems like this would be a win win all
around.

Also I would avoid using wikipedia as a direct source.

Thimerosal is a mercury-containing preservative used in some vaccines and
other products since the 1930's. There is no convincing evidence of harm
caused by the low doses of thimerosal in vaccines, except for minor reactions
like redness and swelling at the injection site.

However, in July 1999, the Public Health Service agencies, the American
Academy of Pediatrics, and vaccine manufacturers agreed that thimerosal should
be reduced or eliminated in vaccines as a precautionary measure.
