@guardianaustralia: Global health agencies and regulators have dismissed unscientific advice from Donald Trump, who made an unproven link between autism and the use of everyday painkillers and vaccines. But the science wasn’t the only problem with that press conference. Here’s what you need to know. #trump #autism #neurodivergent #factcheck Tap the link in our bio to read more in-depth, including an opinion piece from Guardian US columnist Moira Donegan on how Trump's claims heighten the suffering of pregnant women in the US.

Guess what happened when they stopped punishing kids for being left-handed? We had a "meteoric rise" in left-handedness 🤯

THANK YOU! You are the first source I've seen reference the original 2019 study, that has been debunked several times! Everyone making like this is new research. Australian College of Obstetricians came out in 2019 denouncing this study.

So after they ban this - but kids are still born on the autism spectrum what will they target next? 🤷‍♀

'Disorder' is just what they call it when people struggle to work within socially acceptable norms. So if a decent chunk of the population is 'disordered', maybe that's a sign that those norms aren't working anymore.

May be a hot take, but I don’t understand the huge fascination the US has with providing a “cause” for autism. Some people have it some people don’t. Some people have blonde hair and some have brown. It’s a fact. We know how to diagnose now and in cases where intervention is needed, we have developed ways to provide that. I can understand wanting to understand the how’s and whys (like how science has studied other neurological conditions) but I’m over how every other month the US is spouting off some “cause” with no evidence just to point the blame somewhere else.

Tylenol was first marketed in the 50s, ten years AFTER autism was first diagnosed.

@Nenad Tarlac: Surely the host of the video has a vested interest in this topic. You should really disclose that.

this is so frustrating. not only are they trumping up (ha.) outdated science, ignoring that increased awareness and decreasing stigma mean reporting rates go up and kicking off another mass and moral panic. they're creating another scapegoat - it's YOUR fault for taking panadol. it isn't funny, this has never been funny.

Don’t look into companies “dr” oz has stakes in. There’s a reason he named Tylenol specifically

Funny they can link Tylenol to autism but not guns to mass shootings or trump to the epstine files

I have such a debate of people saying this is cause autism. The real conversation should be what is even wrong with autism like calm down. There’s nothing wrong with it.
