FDA Chief Marty Makary on Tylenol, Autism and Restoring Trust in Science

Eminently and reassuringly reasonable.

   And: looks like Trump's comments on Tylenol were in the vicinity of being right.

   Sidebar: apparently a lot of pregnant progressive women--oh, sorry...persons containing fetuses--went online to post themselves taking Tylenol. Because Orange Man bad...

   Tylenol itself then took to Twixxer to say: Uh...hey..we don't actually recommend you take Tylenol if you're pregnant...

   Oopsie.

   Anyway.

   I have a very positive view of Makary, FWTW. And, in general, of FDA. CDC, however...that's a different story.

   One more thing: if Trump is really concerned about autism, or Tylenol...or, for that matter, almost anything else...he needs to let somebody else talk to the public about it. On the one hand, it's too bad that so many on the left are so TDS-addled that Trump saying something motivates them to do the opposite. OTOH, Trump himself is to blame for a great deal of that. I don't think there's any need to elaborate on that last point.
