This reasoning however, is far from scientific,

making it inert and not bioavailable. The differ-
ent routes of entry are not interchangeable for
assessing toxic impacts. Inhaling and ingesting
aluminum are not the same as injecting it. Alu-
minum injected via vaccination bypasses the
protective barriers of the gastrointestinal tract
and mucous membranes, entering directly into
the muscle where it can enter the bloodstream
and lymph, thus redistributing and accumulat-
ing in the bones, lungs and brain. It is absurd to
assume that injected aluminum is safe because
it is introduced in lesser quantity than say, in-
gested aluminum, 99.7 percent of which is not
absorbed by the body.
