Roman god 'Mercurius' also known as the Greek or Egyptian god 'Hermes'        Disclaimer / Investigate: The intent of this website is to
raise awareness about the controversial aspects of vaccination. Many vaccines still contain thimerosal (49.6% ethylmercury by weight.)
While mercury is a highly toxic element second only to radioactive plutonium, when combined with other ingredients, specifically aluminum
and formaldehyde, the synergistic effects increase 10,000-fold. Individuals who suffer from chronic mercury exposure will have a unique
expression of symptoms. This presentation is not to be construed as medical or legal advice: locate and confer with a trusted physician
and lawyer.
