355 SHARES Share Tweet [mc4wp_form id=33047]The World Health Organisation (WHO), on Tuesday, said neither the painkiller Tylenol nor vaccines have been shown to cause autism. AdvertisementPresident Donald Trump had on Monday insisted that pregnant women should “tough it out” and avoid Tylenol due to an unproven link to autism, and also urged major changes to the standard vaccines administered to babies. Vaccines were on the agenda of Trump’s press conference on Monday, when he repeated anti-vax movement talking points. He expressed doubt over standard vaccines, including the MMR shot, which covers measles, mumps and rubella, and implied that he would end the common use of aluminium in vaccines, of which the safety has been widely studied. He has for decades spread claims that vaccines cause autism.
