THE TYLENOL COVER-UP BEGINS! Moms Deserve Better Than This
The media’s response to Trump’s Autism Action Plan is exactly what you’d expect: dismissive, defensive, and downright dishonest. They act like Trump just woke up one day and randomly decided to declare war on Tylenol. In reality, he’s backing years of serious research, long-term studies, large sample sizes, real evidence that points to at least a potentiallink between acetaminophen use in pregnancy and autism or ADHD risk. That’s not conspiracy, that’s science.
What’s been most bizarre to watch is the reaction from so many mom groups. They rush out statements saying, “Tylenol is absolutely safe, keep taking it!” as if that’s the only responsible answer. And if that’s the conclusion you personally reach, that’s fine! But dismissing all other studies and then demanding everyone else dismiss them too? That’s not science, that’s dogma.
It’s the same people who won’t eat deli meat or sushi “just in case,” but when it comes to Tylenol, a drug with mounting studies raising red flags, suddenly the answer is JUST TAKE IT, IT’S FINE. Why? Why defend Tylenol so hard? Even our nation’s top health agencies admit there could be risk, and usually the standard is “abundance of caution.” But instead of urging moms to make informed decisions, the establishment doubles down and insists there’s no problem at all.
This reveals something deeper: these organizations aren’t unbiased actors. They’ve been political for a long time, they just never had pushback before. Now that Trump and RFK Jr. are asking questions, they can’t just quietly set the narrative anymore. And that’s a good thing. Moms deserve the truth, not a PR campaign on behalf of big pharma.
At the very least, women should be given the real science so they can make their own choices. Not lectures, not speeches about how “everything’s fine.” Because maybe, just maybe, everything isn’t.
