Trump Says Tylenol Causes Autism, Medical Community Pushes Back. - FIVE MINUTE NEWS [View all]
At the White House today, Donald Trump falsely claimed that Tylenol (acetaminophen) use in pregnancy is linked to autism—without citing a shred of scientific evidence. He doubled down, urging women to avoid the medication entirely and reviving debunked myths about vaccines causing autism.
Medical experts and leading health organizations slammed the announcement as reckless, warning that untreated fever during pregnancy carries real dangers like miscarriage and birth defects. Critics warn that this misinformation campaign risks undermining decades of research, spreading fear among families, and fueling far-right agendas that demonize neurodiversity. - 09/22/2025.
