I got into this debate on YouTube of all places last year.
Although, I am not an immunologist, I do have some background in immunology, and vaccines have been an interest of mine for many years. It is incredibly frustrating to debate this topic with people who are completely uninterested in providing legitimate references (ie: recent peer-reviewed journal articles).
It has probably been mentioned (haven't read the whole debate), but ethylmercury, used in some vaccines, has shown to not bioaccumulate. This is in direct contrast with methylmercury, which does bioaccumulate, and is often consumed by humans if their diets consist of large fish (ie: tuna).
If we're so concerned about mercury, I think we've got some bigger fish to fry.
