    MERCURY BAN IN FLU VACCINES
    August 26, 2004 - California, U.S.A.

    Thimerosal-containing influenza vaccines were banned from use in California. The governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, was reacting more to public advocacy groups than the weight of medical opinion. Thimerosal, containing an ethylmercury compound has been used in vaccines in microgram quantities to prevent life-threatening bacterial contamination. In 2004, a report by the Immunization Safety Review Committee of the Institute of Medicine stated that the benefits of vaccination are proven and the hypothesis of susceptible populations is presently speculative. After considering available medical studies from several countries, the report rejected any connection between thimerosal-containing vaccines and autism. Neverthless, some lay persons convince themselves otherwise.

LISTING INFORMATION :

Website preview thumbnail for : Park City Magazine
Was the Lodestar Magazine’s first issue was published in 1977, named in reference to the silver mining heritage that still formed much of Park City, Utah’s identity. The mines had been in decline for decades and so with it the community. In those days, our first ski resort had only recently opened and a quaint historic home just off Main Street would only set you back a few thousand dollars. With the addition of two more ski resorts, however, winter recreation eventually became the new “lodestar,” generating the silver that revitalized our local economy. As our community grew and evolved, so did the magazine, and in 1989 we officially changed our name to Park City Magazine. Our website brings you interesting and informative articles on local arts and culture, dining, business, shopping, real estate, travel and recreation.
