re: Tylenol tweet from 2017 resurfaces & is making the rounds

So this basically means the announcement they made was pointless?

quote:

---

TD: TDS / Libtard Tylenol Suicides - liver failure

---

Did your sauces confirm yet?

quote:

What’s wrong with that?

---

Nothing is “wrong with it.”

It is far easier to miss warning flags, and linked adverse events in observational studies than it is in randomized, placebo controlled, double blind studies.

Why?

Nothing for me?

Not one in the same

Sure they are.

Tylenol: We actually don't recommend taking any of our products while pregnant.

Trump: So taking Tylenol is not good. All right. I'll say it. It's not good. For this reason, they are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary. That's, for instance, in cases of extremely high fever, that you feel you can't tough it out. You can't do it. I guess there's that.

Not the same. Trump's statement was more nuanced and reasonable.

I don’t know. Maybe you should read the entire quote. Why did Tylenol say the same thing? Only more broadly?

quote:

---

So why did Trump decide to definitively and decisively say not to take Tylenol?

---

He also said unless you really, really have to.

TRANSCRIPT

quote:

Donald Trump (04:43): Which is basically commonly known as Tylenol during pregnancy and can be associated with a very increased risk of autism. So taking Tylenol is not good. All right, I'll say it; it's not good. For this reason they are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary. That's, for instance, in cases of extremely high fever that you feel you can't tough it out; you can't do it. I guess there's that. It's a small number of cases, I think. But if you can't tough it out, if you can't do it, that's what you're going to have to do. You'll take a Tylenol, but it'll be very sparingly. It can be something that's very dangerous to the woman's health. In other words, a fever that's very, very dangerous and ideally a doctor's decision because I think you shouldn't take it, and you shouldn't take it during the entire pregnancy.

Thanks for the cut & dry receipt. I'm staying tuned for the inevitable spin cycle.

I'll quote it again for posterity.

So Trump not only contradicted the FDA, he contradicted his own self multiple times

Wrong. The way your mind works is fascinating. Like that time you claimed Mickelson said something and it was nowhere near what he said. I don’t know what your malady is…but it is entertaining to see the conclusions you can draw from a simple set of facts. Did you read the entire quote? It’s posted three times on this page.
