President Donald Trump has claimed a link between common over-the-counter painkillers and autism, contradicting major medical groups and following on from Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr’s vow to find a “cause” for the condition.
“Taking Tylenol is not good,” Trump said at the White House Monday. “I’ll say it. It’s not good. For this reason [the FDA] are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary.”
