“Falsely” - falsely link Tylenol to autism..

Ah, here it is jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... No, the correlation doesn't justify cutting aceto access to pregnant folks. But, here's why the quacks are fixated on this pain reliever.

Dear scientists - As the politician you work for, I will dictate the correct answers for you to rubber stamp.

You ppl are going to make me read this damn thing aren't you

Load of crap! He's not a medical professional. I didn't use Tylenol when I was pregnant, and I didn't have a folate deficiency either, I was on prenatal vitamins! My kid has Aspergers and RFK's not a medical professional WTF does he know!!!

I hope Johnson and Johnson sue him into oblivion

Sure seems like BigPharma massively misplayed its hand in not nuking RFK when it had the chance. And now we all get to suffer.

I don’t think it causes autism, but I did see a physician state somewhere that if it came on the market now Tylenol wouldn’t be an off-the-shelf medication on account of its potential for toxicity

His recommendation? Heroin …

Do the executives that own Tylenol know Rkj is out here trying to fuck up their brand?

Re RFKJr.: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Policy-...

Please no one tell him about baby aspirin

why are more women not volunteering to suffer their full punishment for the sin of Eve

Not to mention many states unwilling to give women life saving care in the event of a miscarriage.

Thank you! As a migraine sufferer, the idea that women like me will have no prospect of pain relief during pregnancy makes me gnash my teeth.

Hello lawsuits my old friend

How many MAGA members had word to short the stock?

pretty sure I would have at least lost a limb if my wife was not able to take Tylenol during her pregnancy

There's always heroin instead.

fam is banning all painkillers for pregnant women pronatalism

Try telling a man not to take painkillers for the best part of a year!

They are attempting to squarely put the "blame" for autism at the feet of the "weak women" who took a "harmful" OTC drug. Total misogyny AGAIN

Am pharmacist—Tylenol is like the only safe pain reliever pregnant women can take. He just wants pregnant women to suffer.

...could take, the only painkiller you could take - back in the before times.

Also my guess is that this isn’t going to fly a lot of women avoid taking Tylenol and still have children with autism.

Can makers of acetaminophen sue?

I hope RFK Jr will have unbearable migraines for the rest of his miserable life.

Sadistic misogynist says whaaat?

wait - I thought it was MMR and thimerosal. quacks.

didn't even have the balls to blame vaccines

Just let me dump my J&J shares...

Pregnant women already avoid taking painkillers, and suffer as a result.

Tylenol has been around for decades. Ridiculous to claim that it’s the cause for autism. I imagine the legal department of the maker is already working on it.

Funniest possible outcome now would be if he declares he was wrong about vaccines and it’s been Tylenol all along

Lmao

The quack influencer RFK Jr did raw milk shots with is anti-folic acid added to foods (synthetic form of folate) & anti-veggies like greens which are good sources of folate. Their "vaccines cause autism" campaign is flailing so they're looking for something else to blame.

Instructed

Yeah. Too bad it didn’t happen 30 years ago.

Pharma lobby turns out to be one more paper tiger

“Medicine derived from folate” is just going to be some supplement bs, isn’t it?

Tylenol is made by Johnson & Johnson or one of their subsidiaries, right? can't wait for their defamation lawsuit against the HHS.

They have been chasing this lead for years and, much like vaccines, actual attempts to find a causal link keep failing. But hey: if RFK Jr. says that is what the data should say, I guess the data will say it now. www.factcheck.org/2023/02/limi...

Soooooo it's Refrigerator Moms 2.0??? Seriously? We're back to blaming Moms? I hate it here

So there was NO autism before 1955 ?

Lmao

If it’s Tylenol does that mean vaccines are off the hook?

This begs a huge lawsuit by the makers of Tylenol methinks.

I am not a lawyer and I feel like even *I* could score a win for Johnson & Johnson should they chose to sue the government on this one

Silly me I had assumed he would blame vaccines I didn't consider blaming the mother.

He probably shorted Tylenol stock beforehand. This is probably a deflection from his anti-vax bs he was under fire from in yesterday’s hearing. Now that he has a different autism boogeyman to blame, this gives him an out to back off vaccines for a damn minute. We’ll see.

Folate me, Bobby.

Setting the stage for: 1. litigation which will target the makers of Tylenol 2. Sales of bogus supplements by his charlatan wellness cronies

You can link anything to a spectrum disorder (e.g. autism). The mildest form of a spectrum disorder can be "seen" occasionally in healthy people who are having an off day. That's how the unscrupulous get their linkage.

Honestly, who would believe this? Tylenol should sue the government into oblivion.

How can RFK say this shit straight faced and not feel embarrassment that others would think of him as a liar or maliciously ignorant
