    Too bad we have a president who can't act, read and speak better than a third grader:

    Thank you for pointing that out.  My apologies.  I corrected my original comment. This post was edited by Spunky at September 23, 2025 11:12 AM MDT

    Well at least he didn’t claim bleach was the cure. When I first heard him ranting about Tylenol – I thought he must be getting a kick back from somebody. What makes me sick is Trump once claimed to be the Fertilization president – but he will let the woman go through extra pain so he can make a buck. Cheers!

    He's taken dumbf*ckery to astounding new levels. Honestly, I'm just happy to be living in the now peaceful Aber...berjan, and can holiday in Cambodia since the war with Armenia is finally over.

    I hope your country hasn't fallen for the Green Energy hoax and is using clean, beautiful coal.

    We had, yes. Hook, line and sinker! However, yesterday, we started burning piles of paracetamol/Tylenol at power stations to offset those nasty solar panels, and bird killing wind turbines.

    It is not the Tylenol. It is the vaccines. Tylenol is only being drug in as a possibility because when you take your child to get their shots, they tell you to go ahead and give them Tylenol to help with aches and possibility of fever.

    They're talking about not taking Tylenol during PREGNANCY - not after the child gets the vaccine.  I take it you didn't vaccinate your kids.  Well, let me tell you that I had mumps, measles, rubella, chicken pox and whooping cough because I had them before there were vaccines.  None of it was fun.

    Not only during pregnancy, they were also talking about children taking it. 

    I vaccinated my children. This is how I know they tell you to give them Tylenol ahead of time.   If I had children today, I would be more hesitant about the vaccines.  And I know they would not get as many as are being demanded currently.  
    For example the at birth Hep shot would be a no. It is not needed unless the Mother has hep or is around druggies etc.  No covid or flu shots.  
    I had chicken pox as a child, so did my children. (Vaccine came out shortly after my children got it) but it being new, I would not have given it to them anyway. This post was edited by my2cents at September 23, 2025 11:54 AM MDT

    A child who has already been born who is given Tylenol would not develop autism AFTER BIRTH.  

    Women should listen to their doctors about what should or shouldn't be taken and when, not someone with absolutely NO MEDICAL TRAINING and who has a history of a brain worm, heroin addiction, etc. and Trump is not a medical professional either.  In fact, he isn't any kind of professional at all.

    When Texas lifted the vaccination requirement, there was a measles outbreak and I believe two children died.  Is that what you want?   Measles was declared non-existent in the US for decades.  Stop giving the other vaccines and you'll have the same problem.  But, hey - it won't affect your kids, so what the heck.

    As I said I do not think Tylenol is the big cause.   I think it is too many vaccines.

    Did you think Trump would stop at just telling women not to take it?  Link to transcript below. I .Ike to footnote my sources.

    Leucovorin is a possible treatment for some with autism.  Not a cure. 
    It is NOT being sold by Dr Oz.  LEUCOVORIN is only available as a prescription.  

    Folic acid supplements are and have been available for a long time from any company that sellers supplements....from GNC to Walmart to Dr Oz.

    This study shows a link to Tylenol, and other analgesics to increased Premature delivery (<37 weeks), stillbirth, neonatal death, birth weight, standardised birthweight score, neonatal unit admission, APGAR score at 1 and 5 min, neural tube and amniotic band defects, gastroschisis and, in males, cryptorchidism and hypospadias. 


    Neural tube defects have been linked to autism. Of course,  not the defects result in autism. No one is speaking in absolutes.  But there are studies that suggest at link. 

    This is not the only study but it is a large one studying over 100K pregnancies.
