The incidence has clearly increased, to 1 in 12 boys. Used to be 1 in 1000s. Testing accounts for maybe half of the increase. Genes likely haven’t evolved to cause it. So what else?

Trump says Tylenol is to blame. There are a couple mechanisms that could lead from Tylenol use to autism, but the data is quite clear Tylenol doesn’t “cause” autism. There just isn’t a link in the data…

And yet, one study did show a correlation. And the issue isn’t does Tylenol CAUSE Autism, rather, does/can it increase the risk? Clearly based on mechanisms, it can. And are there other substances that can do the same? Vitamin deficiency is another suspect.

But here’s my bottom line: Libs crowing about Tylenol not CAUSING autism are retarded. It’s like proclaiming driving 100mph doesn’t CAUSE accidents. Lots of people drive 100 without crashing. Yet there are mechanisms- traction, force, reflex time, etc. that make it obvious it increases the risk.

So… same thing with Tylenol, or no?
