In 1999 the AAP and USPHS recommended removal of thimerosal from vaccines (Pediatrics (1999) 104 (3): 568–569.) And it was removed from some but not all vaccines. 26 years later, it will now be removed from the flu vaccine.
This week, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr signed the ACIP's recommendation to remove the mercury-based preservative from all influenza vaccines.
