(7,255 posts)Trump, who wants you to take it on faith and his say-so Tylenol and autism are linked.
Good analysis of facts, as per Scientific studies, thank you doctor!
Trump . . . either distracting from EPSTEIN!!! or looking for praise for his Bigly Brain 'thinking'.

(1,366 posts)Tylenol (acetaminophen) has not been proven to cause autism.
Some observational studies show statistical associations with autism/ADHD, but confounding factors (fever, genetics, maternal illness) likely explain much of it.
Sibling-control studies find no autism link.
WHO, FDA, and ACOG: no conclusive evidence of causation; safe when used as needed in pregnancy, lowest dose, shortest duration.
Bottom line: Associations exist, but causation is unproven. Tylenol does not have confirmed links to autism.

(74,600 posts)...quoted the study as saying significantly more study & a larger sample size is needed.
So, even those doctors are not drawing a definitive conclusion.
But, that seems to the primary lever they're yanking with these proclamations.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H.L. Menckenn

But never fear, the latter part of the ad will tell you they have a solution.
That approach works, and sells a lot of vitamins, dietary supplements, and face creams.
