Trump on autism

Sadly you are not wrong. The idiot did suggest this.
It seems there is no end to his insane thoughts and mutterings.

What? Paracetamol. The world is so crazy now I just don’t want to leave the house.

Then not only were the Democrats to blame, but the voters who were so apathetic and indifferent about who got in, that they didn’t actually vote at all…

An Irish politician Michael Healy Rae brought this subject up the other day. He’s calling for investigations into the sheer amount of kids being diagnosed in recent years.

I have no idea, our class sizes were 30 kids in each year, right from Junior Infants in primary to the last year in secondary. Nobody appeared to struggle or did poorly in exams. This was the 80’s and 90’s. Now it’s everywhere, my son’s school has another school attached for SEN kids and we are in a tiny rural village.

I would love to understand more. Like I said there was nobody looking back through all my friends, siblings friends,
classes, housing estate that you could look back and be confident they were probably autistic. Zero.

Hiding other news behind faux science and outrage

also the entire republic members of The Senate voted to block the release of the Epstein Files

He was voted in by those who bothered to vote. ie 30.5% of the population.
And as I have said on another thread, many of the 40% who didn't vote now regret it and many of those who did vote for him now regret it.

Vaccines, and now paracetamol, what a shame.

It's strange that society continues to be absorbed by these redherrings, and continue neglect the actual likely causes of autism rate increases. Such as gestational diabetes and maternal obesity.

Doesn't RFK refute germ theory, he believes in miasma as main diseae cause instead?

So [some germ] only hurts you if you've got Vit X deficiency because you were exposed to some chemical ... the idea is that germs aren't a big deal, but some individuals are only vulnerable because of pollution. That's the most sophisticated version of miasma theory.

I wonder if RFK's kids or grandkids were vaccinated.

This is amusing. Swimming in poo is fine, folks, keeps you strong.

Exactly the same in my family.
Autism is not a fault to be cured. It's a difference.
But go on Trump, blame the women for taking pain killers.

Me too. Born in 64, had at least 8? Thank goodness.

in the 70s and early 80s I had approximately four vaccines.

Weird. I was born in late 60s & had more than 4 jabs by the time I was 3yo.

Tetanus, diptheria, mumps, measles, polio, smallpox or TB?, boosters for all those, measles one again as an adult... My GGgrandmother lost 4 siblings to diptheria in about 1879. Lucky me to be here at all.

I thought it was down to paternal age more than anything. Is that no longer the theory?

That explains a great deal.

Also an ex heroine addict who had a worm eating his brain and mercury poisoning, apparently.

No …. You don’t say? …..

He truly is the epitome of stupidity.
Unbelievably dangerous man.

Because they haven't conducted any new research themselves. They have reviewed existing research and drawn conclusions that experts globally disagree with. Coincidentally within a time frame they announced months ago. Almost as if they're trying to twist things into the narrative that suits them...

You understand that qualified doctors and qualified attorneys are not interchangeable?

Gaslit, how?

Im guessing you are also a proponent of Wakefield?

And instead they voted in a senile old man and tell the American people that everything is fine.

As a proportion of the vote, Hillary Clinton got more. She lost due to the electoral college system. So I think it’s wrong to say the US is not ready for a female president. Let’s face it, Harris was a shit candidate.

I can see where you’re coming from.

I’m sorry but one of the first things that crossed my mind when I heard this madness was, is this some sort of tactic to get out of assisting families of autistic children in the US? Along the lines of, you took paracetamol (don’t most expectant mums at some point, I know I did?), so, your fault.

I feel crappy typing that but tbh I wouldn’t put anything past this US administration.

The rabid anti-vxr is a qualified attorney who has spent decades fighting on the behalf of families who have been gaslit. He happens not to be anti-vaccine in principle however he wants them to be safely administered and tested out in the first instance.

The USA are not ready for a woman president especially a black one. At least the Republicans are not. They are mostly racist misogynists.

The terrifying thing is Farage and Reform are peddling the same nonsense here. Its utterly shameful.

For anyone worried or feeling guilty about taking paracetamol while pregnant keep this fact in mind. The first mention of a condition called autism came in 1943. Tylenol, which is what Benito Cheeto claims is causing autism, was introduced to the American market in 1955. So that should show you how well researched that claim is.
