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.
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.
