There is extensive evidence linking Tylenol use to ASD, including a 2025 Harvard study, a 2019 Johns Hopkins study and a 2021 international consensus statement calling for women to “minimize exposure” to acetaminophen during pregnancy.
KEY POINTS
• The Associated Press omitted scientific studies that support President Trump’s claim in order to construct a narrative he’d misled the public.
