Debates can lead to many things going wrong but they can also cause

willingly inject into their body but the amount and what is injected along with it are factors that can easily sway people’s opinions on it. I personally believe mothers wanting an answer as to why their child developed autism blew the whole thimerosal debate out of proportion. Like I said before, thimerosal isn’t the enemy; the amount ingested is proven to not be enough to do harm, it also can’t be proven that it is a direct link to autism and claims that it does harm to organs are exaggerated to sway
