全面禁用!美卫生部 发布疫苗 硫柳汞 禁令!
美国卫生与公众服务部部长Robert F. Kennedy,Jr. 本周二签署了美国疾病控制与预防中心免疫实践咨询委员会(ACIP)的建议,从所有疫苗中去除含汞防腐剂硫柳汞。
此举是居于 ACIP 于 6 月 25 日至 26 日在亚特兰大 CDC总部举行的会议上的投票结果进行的,委员会成员在会上投票决定所有 18 岁及以下的儿童、孕妇和成人只能接种不含汞的单剂流感疫苗。、
从儿童疫苗中去除汞的努力始于 1999 年,当时美国公共卫生服务局、美国儿科学会 (AAP) 和疫苗制造商共同同意,汞的任何潜在风险都应尽快去除汞。这标志着从所有疫苗中去除汞的最后一步。
疫苗制造商已确认他们有能力更换含有汞的多剂量产品,确保儿童疫苗(VFC)计划和成人疫苗供应不会中断。
美国卫生与公众服务部部长小罗伯特・F・肯尼迪已认可美国疾病控制与预防中心咨询委员会的一项建议,即禁止在美国所有疫苗中使用硫柳汞。小肯尼迪和其他反疫苗活动人士称这种含汞的防腐剂会导致自闭症,尽管研究表明(二者)并无关联。(卫生与公众服务部) Last month, RFK Jr.’s revamped Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommended against the use of thimerosal in flu shots. In three separate rounds of voting, the ACIP advised that children, pregnant women and adults should not receive vaccines that contain thimerosal. Each of the votes were 5 - 1 in favor of removing thimerosal from vaccines, with one committee member abstaining. “After more than two decades of delay, this action fulfills a long - overdue promise to protect our most vulnerable populations from unnecessary mercury exposure,” RFK Jr. said in a release. “Injecting any amount of mercury into children when safe, mercury - free alternatives exist defies common sense and public health responsibility. Today, we put safety first.” Most companies have already removed the preservative from their vaccines. The exceptions are Sanofi, which produces multidose vials of Fluzone in addition to single - dose syringes, and CSL Seqirus, which includes thimerosal in its multidose vials of Afluria and Flucelvax. Each of these flu shots include a 0.01% concentration of thimerosal. “We acknowledge the recommendation of the new (ACIP),” a Sanofi spokesperson said in a brief statement. “We will have sufficient supply of Sanofi flu vaccine to support customer preference for this season.” Meanwhile, a spokesperson from CSL Seqirus said that “delivery of our thimerosal - free flu vaccines for the upcoming season is already underway and we don’t expect the ACIP recommendation to have any impact on our vaccine supply or shipment timings.” |
