No one at the press conference you’re referring to said that Tylenol was “THE” culprit in causing autism. It was a warning that an association may exist, that it may play a role, and that it should be taken only when necessary after consultation with one’s OB or the baby’s pediatrician. Pres. Trump said then, as he has said many times before, that he was very concerned that infants and small children were getting so many “vaccinations” at once. He asked why couldn’t the “vaccines” be spread out over time. He also questioned why a newborn should be getting a hepatitis B shot. Acetaminophen is not an innocuous drug on a number of levels. Its use and its risks are worth talking about. We can talk about this and the number of childhood “vaccinations” at the same time. The debate need not be mutually exclusive. Let’s not have tunnel vision.

While I completely agree with the specifics of your response to Dr. McCullough, there's really no denying that the overriding message delivered and taken away from that presser was TylenolTylenolTylenol. My gut-level sense of it was that PDJT (and also, apparently, RFKJr and his team) are, for reasons unknown to us, still unwilling to name the main culprit, vaccines.

The emphasis was absolutely on TylenolTylenolTylenol, and of course, the mainstream media ran with it, hard. As a result, it was indeed a misdirection, as Dr. McCullough points out. Obviously, the administration won't get to the heart of the thing by nibbling daintily around the edges. And now they're in the uncomfortable position, if they decide to dive into the deep end by going hard at vaccines, of explaining why they made such a "big deal" about Tylenol.

I wasn't impressed with that presser, and I don't feel a need to defend a focus on Tylenol, when the primary culprit is vaccines. Vaccines should've been the message delivered, giving the mainstream media no wiggle room. Trump, Kennedy et all just need to SAY THE WORDS and stop beating around the bush.

Any drug that suppress hepatic function helps create a higher risk of developing an adverse immune system response to the injection of foreign materiel into the human body. Tylenol is a main culprit and it's generic equivalent acetaminophen because it is over a 20 Billion dollar business. It dominates in pain relief. For mother and for infants in the form of liquid drops.

Focusing on Tylenol takes the heat off the unnecessary vaccinations that are pushed. RFK Jr and President Trump are well aware of the root causes. They did state Aluminum and Mercury must go, MMR should be no longer delivered in one injection. It is a compromise position under threats from Big Medicine in my view!

Thank goodness for Dr. McCullough! He is a trustworthy professional.

You don't see his bias for the allopathic medicine model?

One can’t deny that he is a product of that system. I’m grateful for his awakening.

Why do you think Makary, Oz and RFK jr pushed Tylenol as the main culprit?

I'm sure they have a different audience they need to answer to and r doing the best they can while those others have a hold of their shorthairs.

We know who "the others" are , do we not? Ahem
