Default Safe limit for ingesting mercury

EPA Methyl-Mercury RfD derived in 2003 is 0.1 ug / kg (2.2 lbs) per day. 25
mcg. of mercury is considered "safe" for a 550 lb. adult using EPA
guidelines for ingestion. Inject is approx 1/3 more lethal than ingest --
safe for 733 lb. adult.

methylmercury.

Donna, you have not been paying attention.

Thimerosal is ETHYLmercury, not Methylmercury.

There is a difference.

Since you dished it out, do not complain when you receive it.

Do YOUR homework. Methylmercury is not used in vaccines. Like 7-UP, never
had it, never will.

The precise comparable toxicity between methylmercury and ethylmercury is
not known, however, it is generally accepted that methylmercury is far more
toxic than ethylmercury.
