Covid vaccines and aluminium

Post by Catherine Bridle »

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows whether either the Astra Zeneca or Pfizer (mRNA) vaccine contains aluminium as an adjuvant?

I have tried looking on the net but found conflicting answers.

As an APOE 4/4 I have read that we should try to avoid alumiunium hence the question.

Many thanks!

Hi Catherine Bridle,

I just copied this from another thread and pasted it here. That previous post did not list the ingredients of the
Astra-Zeneca, but these, according to the FDA, are the ingredients :

WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS IN THE PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE?
The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine includes the following ingredients: mRNA, lipids ((4-hydroxybutyl)azanediyl)bis(hexane-6,1-diyl)bis(2-hexyldecanoate), 2 [(polyethylene glycol)-2000]-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide, 1,2-Distearoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphocholine, and cholesterol), potassium chloride, monobasic potassium phosphate, sodium chloride, dibasic sodium phosphate dihydrate, and sucrose.


This is a link to the FDA site that contains this info. https://www.fda.gov/media/144414/download#page=2
I do not have any personal knowledge about the vaccine and cannot verify that information from the FDA is correct. I chose to trust FDA as a sourced information. Like you, I was also concerned about possible toxic metals in the vaccines. Their website also has ingredients of the Moderna and J&J vaccines.
