Reports surfaced today linking the use of Tylenol (acetaminophen) during pregnancy to autism in children. While sensational headlines are already beginning to circulate, the response from leading medical experts is clear: there is no conclusive evidence to support these claims.

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) has firmly pushed back, stating to CBS News, “There is no clear evidence that proves a direct relationship between the prudent use of acetaminophen during pregnancy and fetal developmental issues.” This message is especially important coming from the very organization that represents the professionals who care for pregnant individuals every day. Their stance is one of reassurance: pregnant individuals should not be frightened away from using acetaminophen for pain management. It remains one of the safest and most effective options for relief.

While public figures and media outlets often seize on the latest “study” or “discovery” to drum up fear, it’s important to recognize when we’re being distracted. This latest manufactured controversy arrives at a time when public attention should be focused on more pressing issues, such as the release of the Epstein files.

The Epstein Files

The Epstein files remain one of the most significant and unresolved stories in modern history. The unanswered questions surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s network of powerful individuals, the abuse victims, and the systemic cover-ups that allowed such horrors to continue demand our attention. Yet instead of renewed focus on justice and transparency, we’re being bombarded with noise—stories that divert our gaze from the bigger picture.

We cannot allow every new headline to derail the ongoing demand for the release of the Epstein files.

Let’s stay focused. Let’s demand the release of the Epstein files.
