Washington Post says announcement imminent despite guidelines showing drug – known as paracetamol elsewhere - is safe for pregnant women to take
Donald Trump’s administration is on Monday expected to tie pregnant women’s use of the popular medicine Tylenol – known as paracetamol elsewhere in the world – to a risk of autism, contrary to medical guidelines, the Washington Post has reported.
Trump officials are also expected to announce an effort to explore how the drug leucovorin could purportedly and potentially treat autism, according to the Post report published Sunday, which cited four sources with knowledge of the plans who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the announcement had not been made.
Medical guidelines say it is safe for pregnant women to take Tylenol, the over-the-counter pain medication whose active ingredient is known as acetaminophen in the US and paracetamol elsewhere in the world.
So not even acetaminophen, but specifically Tylenol.
Man that’s an easy lawsuit to win if I ever heard one.
Trick is that you’re basically guaranteed to lose at the USSC.
Good old SCROTUS
Depends if they pay tribute.
or paracetamol.
Why is this dumbfuck is so obsessed with autism?
because it’s something people don’t understand but desperately want to ‘solve’.
so you can leverage it to manipulate them. most of the anti-autism stuff is less about autism and more about controlling sad people who desperately want answers and feel ‘victimized’ by autisms existence
I suspect it’s projection, some autistic person probably schooled him at some point and he felt belittled. He’s dumb and petty enough, plus it’s the right kind of bigotry for the fuhrer to sell snake oil.
Whats fucking insane is, as I understand it this is one of the few pain relief methods that pregnant woman have that’s even safe for the baby.
Gotta start the undesirables list with something
He’s selling. So, he tells you that this “Really bad” companies drug can cause it. Then while you are thinking about it. He tells you that he has this new wonderful drug that might “treat it”. Snake oil anyone?
Anything to avoid the Epstein files
Really? Sure is weird then how the famously autistic Temple Grandin was alive & 8 years old when Tylenol came on the market.
Also, millions of other autistic people.

Findings In this population-based study, models without sibling controls identified marginally increased risks of autism and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) associated with acetaminophen use during pregnancy. However, analyses of matched full sibling pairs found no evidence of increased risk of autism (hazard ratio, 0.98), ADHD (hazard ratio, 0.98), or intellectual disability (hazard ratio, 1.01) associated with acetaminophen use.
Suppose it was discovered via rigorous scientific research that paracetamol does dial up the risk of autism. That would not be impossible in a world that had autism prior to the invention of paracetamol, as you suggest.
Obviously we’re not likely to get rigorous scientific research under RFK Jr, but broken clocks can be right twice a day.
We both know good & well this isn’t what happened.
Not saying you’re either, but giving fascists the benefit of the doubt is generally something only ignorant people or other fascists do.
In the realm of science, I tend not to assume.
RFK Jr wants to assert paracetamol raises the risk of autism? Okay, prove it or shut up about it.
I don’t jump to “shut up about it” just because I hate the guy, and generally educated people don’t either.
If you actually think there has been any kind of scientific study over the past 8 months that can prove this, I don’t know what to tell you.
I’m autistic, my kids are as well. These people are dangerous.
Quit giving fascists the benefit of the doubt.

Are you intentionally misrepresenting what I said or just accidentally?
The harm created by RFK incessantly reciting unproven claims may not affect you, but many people will not do their own research and will trust what the gov has to say on the matter. These people may then place ‘blame’ on mothers of autistic children for using tylenol. Then the state says it was the mothers fault and that their child will get no special medical treatment because their ‘disability’ was caused by drug abuse. Therefore, I think it is perfectly fine to say ‘Shut up about it!’ to RFK because spouting out unverified claims can cause real harm to our friends and family, even if it isnt harming us(you or I) directly. Scientists don’t just publish hypotheses - they do the research first then get it peer reviewed THEN publish it. So yea, RFK is a dipshit doing real harm and he should shut up about it.
RJK said that using paracetamol during preganancy increases the risk of infection because it reduces inflammation.
Except paracetamol is not an anti-inflammatory, that’s why it’s used.
The guy is a brain damaged drug addict.
Your giving the benefit of the doubt to RFK Jr !?
Your assumption about educated people is clearly suspect. This has nothing to do with hate either. I don’t hate idiots, but I also don’t take medical advice from them either.
Yep. Science is all about abandoning your personal feelings in pursuit of knowledge. I don’t have to like the guy to wonder if he’s on to something and await the actual data on the matter.
Your point about taking medical advice from him is irrelevant, considering I haven’t done that.
Looks like it may be time to head back to Reddit. To even pretend that RFK is using science just proves how laughably disturbed you are. The only point you have proven here is being obstinate. I am blocking you now.
Likewise. You make personal attacks with virtually no reason. Glad I’ll never have to suffer your presence again.
So they can re-authorize all the vaccines now, right?
“No, not like that!”
How about the Epstein files, do they cause autism?
Want to reduce autism? Reduce pollution. But this is the guy that’s dismantling all environmental regulations.
Exposure to fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5) has been linked with significantly increased risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children, particularly if exposure occurs during the third trimester of pregnancy or during early childhood, according to a meta-analysis from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
The study was published April 29, 2021, in Environmental Research Letters.
The authors noted that there has been a steep rise in the prevalence of childhood diagnosis of ASD over the past several years, from 6.7 per 1,000 people in 2000 to 16.8 per 1,000 people in 2014. Possible risk factors include those related to family, such as genetics or parental age, or the environment. Previous studies have found an association between exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM) and neurobehavioral dysfunction, but they’ve been inconclusive regarding the link between PM exposure and the development of ASD.

Having Autism is amazing tho. Maybe we should start having pregnant women stand by freeway exits?
That and stop having kids at 35+.
But that’s not socially acceptable to say.
It doesn’t have anything to do with he agent the mother, it’s not Down syndrome.
I would have loved to start younger. But we were poor and struggling. 2008 sucked.
That’s great! Where are the Epstein files?
still using charlie kirk as a smokescreen in the media.
What is the point of this ?
The Trump admin was never going to release anything incriminating.
The Epstein files are the distraction from all the other fuckery going on.
ouroborous, we have to start somewhere and defeating any starting point, well…
I’m not the one defeating starting points.
In the time you’ve been disregarding all inputs in favor of this glib “but what about the epstein files” comment, things have gotten progressively worse.
Holding this admin to account in anything else has repeatedly failed only Epstein has made this admin squirm. Look at how aggressively they are martyring Kirk bc it’s distraction from Epstein. That assassination has been mighty effective on changing their narrative, unfortunately.
All of that may be true, and yet posting “what about the Epstein files” in response to every new atrocity is not achieving anything at all.
I would absolutely love to see all the stock put plays that happened behind doors by insiders on Friday. This seems like a corrupted stock move more than anything. Announced on a weekend no less.
These guys are going to get away with every single crime they commit until they die. Makes me feel crazy.

I understand they are also going to release information that links severe back related injuries to mothers, to one or more of their children stepping on a crack.
ASD has a heritability of around 80-90 percent (variance explained by genetics). That’s about the same as human height. There are important environmental factors, but this is probably bullshit considering the source. You can tell when they don’t mention the effect size (the increased probability of developing the disorder) which is probably very low.
Autism is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder and there are no easy answers. Trump and RFK Jr are liars and morons, and this preys on desperate parents trying to help their kids.
Can we please tie MAGA to NPD?
I guess he doesn’t like the brand with “stop. Think.” As their slogan
Why does everything cause autism now 💹
its wastebasket disease with no definitive specific cause, so Psuedoscience can attribute anything can cause it.
For the same reason everything they don’t like is woke
Because its being massively over-diagnosed.
No - film directors and stand up comedians do not have autism.
Choo-choo! Lawsuit incoming!
