No. Thimerosal contains a form of mercury called ethylmercury. In contrast, methylmercury is an environmental contaminant. In March 2004, the FDA and the EPA released a joint advisory for the consumption of fish for women who may become pregnant, pregnant women, nursing mothers, and young children. The advisory is based on an EPA standard of 0.1 mcg/kg per day of methylmercury, which is not a component of thimerosal.
