Aluminum is an experimentally demonstrated neurotoxin and the most commonly used vaccine adjuvant. Despite almost 90 years of widespread use of aluminum adjuvants, medical science's understanding about their mechanisms of action is still remarkably poor.
The CDC Catch-Up schedule using low-Al containing vaccines lowers aluminum toxicity to 38 % of days, and the alternative schedule that uses only one Al containing vaccine at a time lowers aluminum toxicity further to 7.8 % of days.
The safety of aluminum salts from vaccines, and from other sources, has also been established in studies examining blood and hair levels of aluminum in infants, and associated neurodevelopmental outcomes (Karwowski et al., 2018). Such studies have not proven a link between blood and hair concentrations of aluminum and receipt of vaccines, nor ...
The post went on to refer to an FDA “safety limit” of 5 micrograms aluminum per kilogram body weight per day, juxtaposing it with amounts of aluminum in vaccines.
More recently, aluminium adjuvants have been incorporated into vaccines targeting human papillomavirus (HPV), notably within Adjuvant System 04 (aluminium hydroxide and monophosphoryl lipid A), aluminium hydroxide, or amorphous aluminium hydroxyphosphate sulfate.
Even if all the individual vaccines in a proposed schedule meet this weight-adjusted limit, administration of multiple aluminum-containing vaccines in a single day could easily exceed a recommended safe limit which considers body weight.
Aluminum is used in vaccines as an adjuvant. An adjuvant is a vaccine component that boosts the immune response to the vaccine. Adjuvants allow for lesser quantities of the vaccine and fewer doses. The adjuvant effects of aluminum were discovered in 1926.
Background: Aluminum adjuvants, renowned for their safety and efficacy, act as excellent adsorbents and vaccine immunogen enhancers, significantly contributing to innate, endogenous, and humoral immunity. An ideal adjuvant not only boosts the immune response but also ensures optimal protective immunity. Aluminum adjuvants are the most widely used vaccine adjuvants and have played a crucial ...
Objectives To assess the benefits and harms of aluminium adjuvants versus placebo or no intervention in randomised clinical trials in relation to human vaccine development.
The use of aluminum salts in vaccine adjuvants to enhance effectiveness is one of the major reasons for this lack of confidence. The direct toxicity of aluminum is often put forward.
