The Missing Link
Without evidence, the Moron King suggested injected bleach as a COVID cure. Now he claims a link where there is none between Tylenol pain management during pregnancy and autism. Trumpistan will be a far sicker place than the America it replaces.
Continuing his never-ending quest to make Trumpistan sicker, Doctor Dementia on Monday pushed discredited links between Tylenol pain management during pregnancy and autism. “Don’t take Tylenol. Don’t take it. Fight like hell not to take.” Trump told expectant mothers in what the Associated Press called a “rambling announcement” at an “unwieldy” news conference.
Health officials in the U.S. and around the world rejected the Moron King’s recommendations. In the words of the British Health Secretary, “Don’t pay any attention whatsoever to what Donald Trump says about medicine.” After all, Trump is the “stable genius” who suggested injecting disinfectant to eradicate COVID.
Art Caplan, a bioethicist at New York University, dubbed The Don’s performance “the saddest display of a lack of evidence, rumors, recycling old myths, lousy advice, outright lies, and dangerous advice I have ever witnessed by anyone in authority.” (AP)
Meanwhile, another large U.S. measles outbreak is centered in border areas of southwestern Utah and Arizona, which are seeing the highest number of cases since the 1990s. When a highly infectious, vaccine-preventable disease drops into a community with low vaccination rates, the outcome is predictable. (NBC)
