Most pneumonia vaccines, including the pneumococcal vaccines, do not contain Mercury. Some vaccines historically contained thimerosal, a mercury-containing preservative, but many vaccines have been reformulated to eliminate this ingredient. Current formulations of pneumonia vaccines are considered safe and do not pose mercury-related risks. Always consult with a healthcare provider for specific vaccine ingredient information.
What else can I help you with?
Does the H1N1 vaccine contain Mercury?
It depends in what form the vaccine is given. If it is FluMist (through the nose) or a single-dose pre-filled syringe, then it does not contain thermisol (mercury). If it a multiple dose vaccine, then it contains therimosol to help preserve the vaccine. The FDA has suspended the limits of mercury in the H1N1 vaccine, which means the multiple dose vaccine may contain amounts of mercury higher than the FDA has previously allowed.
Is there a vaccine for viral pneumonia?

Should someone who has already had pneumonia get the pneumonia vaccine?
Yes, if you are otherwise a candidate for the vaccine (there are age and health considerations as well as whether you have been vaccinated for it in the past), you should get vaccinated since pneumonia can be caused by different microbes, some types are viral, some types are bacterial, and even some more rare types are fungal. The type of pneumonia you had may be different than the types that are protected by the currently available pneumococcal pneumonia vaccine (aka the "pneumonia vaccination").Pneumococcal pneumonia is caused by pneumococcus bacteria. There are more than 80 different types of this bacteria that can cause pneumonia. The most common 23 of these types are included in the current vaccination. So even if you had one of the types of pneumonia that was caused by this bacteria, you can still be susceptible to the other types.
