Episode 79
In this episode, Dr. Brett (PhD, Epidemiology) and Andy break down the viral claim by President Trump and RFK Jr. that Tylenol during pregnancy causes autism.
They cut through the noise:
- What the White House actually said (nothing close to confirmation)
- What the JAMA studies show (associations, not causation)
- What RFK Jr. and Trump’s framing gets wrong
- What the evidence does suggest — and what it doesn’t
Listen to cut through all the BS and walk away with what you need to know.
