Quack "Drs." Donald Hump and Brainworm RFK Jr. Have Found Cause of Autism

That's it. Stop all the research. Stop wasting Trump's money on silly clinical studies and other biomedical studies. The quacks Donald Hump, RFK Jr, and the Turkish Wizard of Mehmet Oz have discovered the cause, and hence the cure, for autism. Tylenol is to blame, NOT VACCINES!

Trump reveals autism announcement during Charlie Kirk memorial: 'We found an answer'

During his remarks at Charlie Kirk's public memorial, President Donald Trump teased a forthcoming announcement about his administration's findings on autism.

“I think you’re going to find it to be amazing,” Trump told the Glendale, Arizona, crowd memorializing the conservative activist. "I think we found an answer to autism."

Calling the announcement one of the biggest in the "history of the country," the president said he will hold a news conference on Sept. 22 with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. Mehmet Oz, administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.













The Trump administration is expected to announce that Tylenol use during pregnancy could contribute to the development of autism in children, according to Politico and The Washington Post. The president and his advisers are also expected to discuss a potential treatment for autism, the drug leucovorin, the news organizations reported.

The administration will discuss how autism "happens, so we won’t let it happen anymore, and how to get at least somewhat better when you have it," Trump said.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s report on autism

In late August, Kennedy said a study on autism he spearheaded in April found "interventions" that could be causing the neurodevelopmental disorder. He announced that the study's results would be released in September.

Earlier this month, The Wall Street Journal reported that Kennedy's autism report would link the use of the popular over-the-counter pain medication by pregnant women to autism, contrary to medical guidelines that say it is safe to use. Acetaminophen, the generic form of Tylenol, is commonly used by pregnant women, who are already advised by the Food and Drug Administration not to use ibuprofen after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

The Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists both endorsed using acetaminophen during pregnancy in Sept. 5 statements.

"Acetaminophen remains a safe, trusted option for pain relief during pregnancy," ACOG said in a social media post.

The SMFM said that not treating pain and fever during pregnancy can "carry significant maternal and infant health risks."

"At this time, the weight of scientific evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy causes an increased risk for autism or ADHD is simply inconclusive," SMFM President Sindhu K. Srinivas said in the statement.

Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic who has linked vaccines to autism, has asserted that the U.S. is in the grip of an "autism epidemic" fueled by "environmental toxins." Decades of research have not yielded firm answers on what contributes to autism, but many scientists believe genetics, potentially in combination with environmental influences, play a role.

Kennedy's rhetoric on autism has been embraced by some corners of the autism community and maligned in others. The idea that vaccines cause autism has been disputed by many scientific studies, and it has been rejected as a cause by all leading scientific organizations.

Increase in autism diagnoses

Autism diagnoses in the United States have increased significantly since 2000, intensifying public concern.

In an April report, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that in 2022, 1 in 31 children were diagnosed with autism by age 8 in the United States, an increase from 1 in 36 children in 2020. The prevalence of autism among boys was 1 in 20, and the 2022 rate is five times higher than it was in 2000.

Though Kennedy has characterized the increase in autism rates as an "epidemic running rampant," CDC researchers have attributed the increase to “increased identification” among very young children and groups that had not been previously identified.

Autism spectrum disorder, or ASD, is the clinical name for the condition most people refer to as autism and is diagnosed based on challenges with social skills, communication, and repetitive behaviors. It is a spectrum, meaning symptoms vary widely; a percentage are unable to communicate at all, and others are highly successful in some areas of life.
