They should but they won't. Remember these are the same geniuses who claim mercury is terrible but it's okay to put in our mouths!

Well, this is certainly an egregiously bad article. Breathless innuendo and the obligatory sob story -- which somehow fails to make any connection between "Julie's daughter Eve" and thimerisol.

However, there is one tiny little problem: Thimerosal is 50 percent mercury by weight.

How much thimerosal is used in a typical application? A 500milihtsm dose of a drug that was 50% mercury by weight would be pretty horrid; a 1 picogram does of a drug that was 90% mercury by weight would be pretty harmless. So where does thimerosal fit in?
