Autism Community Responds to Trump and Tylenol Warnings
TL;DR Summary
The autism community criticizes President Trump's announcement linking Tylenol use during pregnancy to autism, viewing it as a harmful and unproven claim that causes unnecessary fear and self-doubt among parents. Experts and advocacy groups emphasize that there is no confirmed link and advocate for increased research focused on improving quality of life for autistic individuals rather than stigmatization or fear-mongering.
