Tylenol

 All the legacy media are insisting that either there is nothing to these concerns or that Trump is making big deal about something that remains unproven because there is causal explanation.  

Was there a causal explanation for cigarettes and cancer.  No.  There was a strong correlation.  That was enough.  I do not believe the thalidomide disaster required a causal relationship proved.  If something not made by Big Pharma had a similar worrisome correlation, all the usual crowd would be demanding immediate action to at least ban it.  Trump's FDA is only recommending care in prescribing it for pregnant women.  It is not just that Harvard School of Public Health meta study:

Maternal use of acetaminophen during pregnancy and neurobehavioral problems in offspring at 3 years: A prospective cohort study,

. 2022 Sep 28;17(9):e0272593. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0272593

 

There were 1,011 women (41.7%) who reported using acetaminophen during pregnancy. Children who were exposed to acetaminophen during pregnancy scored significantly higher on 3 of the 7 CBCL syndrome scales: withdrawn, sleep problems and attention problems. Scores on all 7 of the CBCL syndrome scales were significantly associated with prenatal stress. After adjustment for prenatal stress and other confounders, 2 syndrome scales remained significantly higher in children exposed to acetaminophen: sleep problems (aOR = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.01–1.51) and attention problems (aOR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.01–1.45).
