Even vaccines aren't safe?

WFAA had a story last night about mercury in childhood vaccines.

At the center of the investigation: a preservative put into many vaccines. It's called Thimerosal, and it's made from mercury, the second most toxic metal known to man.

Thimerosal has not been put into any new vaccines since 2001, but Thimerosal has been used in vaccines since the 1930s. And there are still existing doses of vaccines containing mercury.

It's a bit disconcerting to think that vaccines, which are supposed to help keep children safe, can actually be doing a lot of damage to them.
