Because it contains these sentences already in the abstract:
"The initial and terminal half-life of Hg in blood after thimerosal exposure was 2.1 and 8.6 days, respectively, which are significantly shorter than the elimination half-life of Hg after MeHg exposure at 21.5 days. "

"The initial and terminal half-life of Hg in blood after thimerosal exposure was 2.1 and 8.6 days, respectively, which are significantly shorter than the elimination half-life of Hg after MeHg exposure at 21.5 days. "
It does say that the percentage of inorganic Hg in the brain was higher when exposed to thiomersal, but the numbers are 34% vs. 7%. BUT: Brain concentrations of total Hg were significantly lower by approximately 3-fold for the thimerosal-exposed monkeys. Which means the total amounts are actually rather comparable.
Did you read the Burbacher study?
