is RKFJr's "Tylenol(TM) causes autism" just a shakedown for extortion money from the company?

No pain control in pregnancy.

Child has autism - it’s your fault mom.

Not to mention the health problems created by mothers high fevers in pregnancy - those will be moms fault too.

Not a shakedown OP.

1) the 1 in 12 number is false
2) Do you suppose a greater understanding of brain science between 1980 and 2024 might have something to do with the ability for better diagnosis?

Autism is defined much more broadly now than it was in 1980. There are lots of people who qualify for a diagnosis now, who wouldn’t have in 1980. Asperger’s used to be a separate diagnosis from Autism. Now there’s just Autism Spectrum Disorder, which includes the entire range, from severely disabled people who will never live independently to people who are rigid thinkers and socially awkward, but are brilliant and capable of great professional success.

Is that why he's blaming the brand name and not the common name of acetaminophen?

Lordy, the corruption is breathtaking in this administration.

Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.

Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.

Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Wrong it was a prescription drug until 1959 and exploded in popularity in the 1980s with new marketing.

What are you talking about? Care to cite that?

There was no over the counter ibuprofen in the 1980s. For fever and pain in children, all you had was aspirin and acetaminophen, and both were readily available over the counter. Acetaminophen pretty much had the market cornered, because aspirin had been flagged as being a risk for poisoning children since the 1960s. https://penntoday.upenn.edu/news/aspirin-poisoning-saftey-caps-history-medication-for-children

What do you think parents were giving their children for fever, ear infections, and the like, in the 1970s and early 1980s? Orange juice?

Ibuprofen first became over the counter in the mid 1980s, and it took a few years to gain ground for people to trust it in children. Acetaminophen was used because it was the trusted and over the counter medication.

I mean, it’s not the frivolous assertion that people pretend. You can pop on PubMed now and easily find studies showing it inducing autism-like changes in animal models.

Animals are not human. There have been plenty of findings in animals that didn’t translate to humans.

How exactly are you detecting autism in mice, again?

And what about the 2.5 million Swedish children in a *prospective cohort study* for 29 years, in which it was definitively shown that Acetaminophen is not associated with autism or any intellectual disability?

The problem with this whole thing is that a heroin addict with a brain worm and affinity for dead animals is leading the charge. Royal train wreck of the century is now going to tell us what’s wrong with our kids?
