Donald Trump: "Paracetamol is associated with the risk of autism. Pregnant women should not take it."

US President Donald Trump has strongly advised pregnant women against taking acetaminophen (Tylenol), a widely used painkiller, stating that it is "probably associated with a significantly increased risk of autism." "Don't take it," the US president reiterated, also attacking the hepatitis B vaccine ("I would say wait until the child is 12 and educated," contradicting the broad medical consensus that the best way to prevent transmission of the disease, which can cause liver damage and cancer, is to vaccinate newborns within the first day of life.) during a White House event dedicated to autism.
