Following the announcement by President Donald Trump recommending that pregnant women limit their intake of acetaminophen (commonly known as Tylenol) due to possible links to an increased risk of autism, some pregnant liberal women responded by posting videos of themselves taking the medication, Breitbart reports. This announcement was made on Monday alongside Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz.

President Trump highlighted that the rise in autism rates is alarming, citing CDC data showing that 1 in 31 American children now have autism. He mentioned observations that certain groups who avoid vaccines and pills show lower autism rates. Trump then revealed that the FDA will notify physicians about the potential autism risk associated with acetaminophen use during pregnancy.

In reaction, some pregnant liberal women posted videos drinking Tylenol, expressing their trust in science over Trump’s statements, despite Trump not making the claim based on his own medical opinion. Others called the announcement an attack on women. The President clarified that while Tylenol use should be limited during pregnancy, there are situations like extreme fevers where its use may be necessary for the health of the mother.
