Tincture of iodine burned. Merthiolate was the good stuff.
Tincture of iodine or iodine tincture is an antiseptic, it is also called weak iodine solution. Usually 2–7% elemental iodine, along with potassium iodide or sodium iodide, dissolved in a mixture of ethanol and water. It was used from 1908 in pre-operative skin preparation by surgeon Antonio Grossich.[1] As in the case of Lugol's iodine, the role of iodide and water in the solution is to increase the solubility of the elemental iodine, by turning it to the soluble triiodide anion I3−. However, since iodine has moderate solubility in ethanol, it is also assisted by this solvent directly. Thus, iodine tincture solutions are characterized by the presence of alcohol, and about the same amount (weight % content) of elemental iodine as iodide.

This is actually a question on the autism society webite.heres what it say
Newschaffer, Ph.D.).
Are autism rates in other countries rising? Rising rates of autism are being reported worldwide. In Hong Kong, for example, researchers believe that rising autism rates among children are associated with elevated methylmercury levels, primarily from the large amount of fish consumption there. Methylmercury is absorbed into the blood after ingestion and, in pregnant women, it readily crosses the placenta into the fetal circulation system, and then to the brain (se http://www.autism-society.org/research/environmental-health-initiative/environmental-health-questions.html#5
please note what methylmercury is.
I looked and found this graph. looks like us is more wide spread. http://sfari.org/news-and-opinion/news/2011/researchers-track-down-autism-rates-across-the-globe
and the WHO is very involved in getting underdeveloped countries vaccinated. they are very involved it appears to what strains are made up to. http://www.who.int/influenza/vaccines/virus/en/
^^ that seems odd to me that so many people, so much money and power being devoted to a disease that kills fewer people than just about any disease.
The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) of 1986 (42 U.S.C. §§ 300aa-1 to 300aa-34) was enacted in the United States to reduce the potential financial liability of vaccine makers due to vaccine injury claims. The legislation was aimed at ensuring a stable market supply, and to provide cost-effective arbitration for vaccine injury claims. Under the NCVIA, the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP) was created to provide a federal no-fault system for compensating vaccine-related injuries or death by establishing a claim procedure involving the United States Court of Federal Claims and special masters.

yes, but the important thing, was she revengeful and get you back?
No, she did not.
well she isn't like my sisters or anyone I know. including me. sticking lemon and salt on my wound would be good reason to put a bug or something in your cereal.
Perfect is the enemy of good, and you are unable to comprehend the same. Fortunately, the medical community can make that distinction and understands probabilities. Do not go outside Monday....you may get hit by lightening, but for the rest of us not paralyzed by fear and superstition, we will continue life making choices which are rational.

again, nothing but bloated words and belittling insults from you when given facts.
btw... im glad you will be making a CHOICE. all I wanted to begin with was to be able to insure everyone was able to have a CHOICE. and not threatened, fired etc.
let me make it simple.
0.1 microgram mercury recommended per 2.2 lbs of body weight per EPA
vaccine 25 micrograms mercury
you do the math.
oh and while you were so busy trying to just belittle, perhaps you should have paid attention. They are moving quietly away from using this substance.

Mercurochrome was the only thing in out medicine cabinets. The bottom half of my legs were constantly tinted orange. My mom would just pour the bottle over my stubbed toes. It healed all wounds. I wish it were still available.
