If things in America weren’t stupid enough, Texas is suing Tylenol maker
While the underlying cause or causes of autism spectrum disorder remain elusive and appear likely to be a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors, President Trump and his anti-vaccine health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.-neither of whom have any scientific or medical background whatsoever-have decided to pin the blame on Tylenol, a common pain reliever and fever reducer that has no proven link to autism.
And now, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing the maker of Tylenol, Kenvue and Johnson & Johnson, who previously sold Tylenol, claiming that they have been deceptively marketing Tylenol" knowing that it leads to a significantly increased risk of autism and other disorders."
To back that claim, Paxton relies on the considerable body of evidence... recently highlighted by the Trump Administration."
