Do any of you three have an argument to make? If so, Id be more than happy to have a conversation. But lets be real. Bill Gates has already literally admitted on camera three times that vaccines depopulate the world.

First of all, Bill Gates said that vaccines can help reduce population growth, not that they would depopulate the world. Those are two completely different things. Secondly, he said that with the knowledge that as child mortality rates decrease, so too does population growth. Because if people don't have to have 7 children in an attempt to make sure they get one or two that survive childhood, they aren't going to try to have children as often. And vaccines help decrease child mortality rates.

Good call. Do your research first, ask yourself what is found inside vaccines (massive amounts of heavy metals like mercury and aluminum, for example), and also question why an anti-vaxxer poses a health risk to vaxxers if vaccines work.

Aluminum isn't a heavy metal. You know what are heavy metals? Iron, cobalt, and zinc. You can't just paint "heavy metals" as universally dangerous when at least three of them are essential for the proper functioning of the human body and you've misidentified a light metal as a heavy metal. I'm going to assume you meant "toxic metals".

Is elemental mercury toxic? Yes, absolutely. Is methylmercury toxic? Definitely. Is ethylmercury toxic? Probably, if the dose is high enough. Extremely unlikely that you're going to get a high enough dose of ethylmerucry unless you're injected with at least the entire contents of a multi-dose vial of the influenza vaccine. Completely impossible if it's a single-dose vial of the influenza vaccine.

Is aluminum toxic? Generally no, unless you're ingesting over 40 mg/day per kg of body mass. That's about 3.2 g a day for a person weighing around 180 lbs (~80kg). But that's for elemental aluminum. Aluminum salts, like those used as adjuvants in vaccines, are incredibly nontoxic, usually having an LD50 in the ballpark of 500g for that same 180 lb person. Vaccines that use an aluminum salt adjuvant (and many of them don't) contain no more than 840 micrograms per dose.

And as to why someone in support of vaccines should have something to fear from someone who's not, it's actually quite simple. Some people have compromised immune systems and can't get vaccinated. They rely on herd immunity to protect them from disease, and the fewer vaccinated people there are, the more their health is at risk.

But seriously, if you're that concerned about mercury being in your vaccine, then next time you get a flu shot, you can request a single-dose vial from your doctor, which contains no thimerosal (and therefore no mercury) and no aluminum (because only one seasonal influenza vaccine uses an adjuvant, and even then it's one that contains no aluminum salts).
