Pregnant liberal women are now filming themselves taking Tylenol to spite President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
On Monday, the duo unveiled research findings about an association between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and an increased risk of autism. Acetaminophen is the active ingredient in Tylenol, one of the most widely used medications globally for pain relief and fever reduction.
To apparently show their resolve for “science,” and make a political statement about the Trump administration, women started filming themselves taking Tylenol while flaunting their pregnant bellies.
In one video from @imdatmom on TikTok, for example, a woman rubs her pregnant belly while displaying three bottles of Tylenol on her bathroom counter. She then takes a pill and dances to music.
Another similar video is captioned, “Here is me, pregnant, taking Tylenol because I believe in science and not someone who has no medical background.”
“Me popping Tylenol while pregnant because [what the f***] is the government gonna do about it,” another video was captioned. Other videos followed the same formula:
In a fact sheet issued by HHS, the department cited large-scale cohort studies, like the Nurses’ Health Study II and the Boston Birth Cohort, as evidence for the “associations between in utero exposure and later diagnoses of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).”
“Scientists have proposed biological mechanisms linking prenatal acetaminophen exposure to altered brain development,” the department added.
Additionally, The Daily Wire’s Morning Wire podcast spoke to FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary, who emphasized that the Harvard School of Public Health Dean “has made a very conclusive statement that he believes the association is causal.”
“We have an epidemic of autism that has increased 400% in the recent decades, and we don’t have a known cause,” Dr. Makary said. “Now this may be a cause, but when you have enough evidence to suggest an association and you have no other plausible cause, we have a duty to notify parents and doctors.”
The commissioner has already sent out a “Dear doctor” letter to all U.S. physicians about the information, he added.
And, as highlighted by some online, an account for Tylenol said back in 2017 that they don’t recommend their products for pregnant women.
