Thimerosal, a mercury compound added to vaccines as an anti-bacterial agent, was removed from childhood vaccines in the United States in 2001. Thimerosal is based upon ethylmercury, which is easily removed from the body and therefore not as toxic as mercury in edible fish. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/concerns/thimerosal/index.html

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1654315230137303040

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
