I have been reading a lot about the blood/brain barrier and want some more info. Can you post links or give me more information? Thanks!

I'm moving to the main forum for a broader audience response. Just remember we're talking about the BBB in relation to vaccines in this forum.

My understanding is that the BBB basically does not exist for infants. It's something that develops as a child grows. I do not know when it is "fully" in place - my *guess* would be age 4 or 5.

Please be aware there are diseases that have been linked to vaccines that have nothing to do with the BBB.

I think it's not clear when the bbb is completely formed. Some researchers believe not until the age of 6 years. Some say sooner.

I know the blood brain barrier is damaged by even small amounts of injected mercury.
