The HHS (or NIH or CDC or some combination of the three) are going to
blame Tylenol for autism soon.
However, I just listened to a science-based podcast that looked into the
matter. There is a 20% increase in the probability that correlates
Tylenol with autism (in some reports), BUT the studies that did find the
correlation did not factor in secondary and tertiary conditions like the
mother's age or that she had a fever (for which she probably took
Tylenol). When they factored in those situations, the 20% correlation
flat-lined (AKA went away).
Correlation is not causation is the watch phrase.
RFK does not know how to read medical reports.
