President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made an announcement declaring that they had found a link between autism and acetaminophen, commonly known as Tylenol.

This came despite the fact that little evidence of a link exists.

Trump and Kennedy, both of whom have repeated the debunked link between vaccines and autism, had said the the US government would “what has caused autism epidemic” by September.

“So taking Tylenol is not good, all right, I’ll say it it’s not good for this reason,” Trump said. “They are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary.”

Tylenol is the most commonly used pain reliever and many women use acetaminophen, Tyleonol’s scientific name, for fever or pain. Indeed, Trump struggled to pronounce the name of the drug.
