President Trump announced the Food and Drug Administration believes the use of acetaminophen — the active ingredient in Tylenol and many cold and flu medications — during pregnancy can be associated with an increased risk of autism, though medical experts have said the medication is safe.

"Effective immediately, the FDA will be notifying physicians that the use of acetaminophen during pregnancy can be associated with a very increased risk of autism," the president said. "So, taking Tylenol is not good, alright? I'll say it. It's not good. For this reason, they are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary."

"Ideally, a woman won't take Tylenol," he said, and pivoted to discussion of childhood vaccination, saying vaccines should be given in "smaller doses" and spread out "over a period of years," without citing medical evidence for his claims about vaccines. On his various vaccine recommendations, the president said, "You know, I'm just making these statements from me, I'm not making them from these doctors."

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said the FDA based its decision on acetaminophen on "clinical and laboratory studies" that "suggest a potential association between acetaminophen used during pregnancy and adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes," including one study in the public health journal Environmental Health, but added that "NIH [National Institutes of Health] research teams are currently testing multiple hypotheses."


Now we gotta ask the same questions Kirk would ask: any time I see this government claim something, I have to ask, is it credible? are they qualified? are they in these positions or claims because of their skin color or their feelings?

These conspiracy theories were fabricated by far right podcasters like Alex Jones. It's so fukking insane that you have people with important government positions buying into this shyt.
Maybe so, but is it not more insane that they’re giving babies Tylenol upon birth as standard practice ?

Edit: misread the implication,
They’re not giving Tylenol to newborns
