I'm not getting the vaccine, but this came out in the Seattle Times today and if it's happening in this state, it may happen in others.

Here's the article link:

This may or may not change peoples' minds on getting the vaccine and I think that vaccines are a personal decision, but I know there's been a lot of talk on this board about this since we're a target group.

Well, that settles that question. I was debating on whether to get it. No way that is happening now.

What is WRONG with our state health dept?!?!?!?! Since when has even miniscule amounts of any heavy metal been ok?!?!?!

So the evening news just added that the A-ok was given so that more mercury free vaccines are available to pregnant women. So, it might not be as bad as originally thought for pregnant women, just a matter of making sure if you're getting it that it's the mercury free version.
