I believe you are right , I did a job alongside some EPA guys . they told me when they measure mercury levels in fish that they grind the whole fish up . most of the mercury is in the bones and organs. I think its a person to person thing , bring susceptible to mercury poisoning or the metals hanging around in the body. I did a decade in prison and ate more mackerel and tuna than anyone can imagine all day with no issues .Don't take it personally. Vaccines in multi-dose vials (very few) may contain a preservative thimerosal where the mercurial component is ethylmercury. Ethylmercury is eliminated by the body unlike the poisonous elemental mercury (methylmercury). Thimerosal was entirely removed or almost entirely removed from vaccines 20 years ago in favor of single-use preparations. But regardless, the amount of thimerosal a vaccine contained before even 1998 was so small (~50mcg) that it would take so many vaccinations to be toxic it was not even realistic.
For comparison, a few large servings of orange roughy or swordfish probably contain more mercury (300-400mcg methylmercury) than the combined benign mercury (ethylmercury) in every vaccine you've had or will recieve in your lifetime.
Selenium also binds to mercury rendering it harmless and is abundant In fish. But I have to look into that more. I say this because in countries or cultures where fish and seafood are eaten in abundance, the people have perfectly normal or better life expectancies. Some eat fish almost exclusively aside from fruits or vegetables. Why aren't they sick with PCB and mercurial poisoning? Not to mention, doesn't mercury fall on plants or seep into groundwater? To say nothing of the fact that we eat primarily the muscle of the fish or animal. The mercury in my body is in my liver, kidneys, brain, CNS, not in my muscles. So regarding seafood, I'm not quite sold on the poisonous fishies thing yet.
