Acetaminophen use during pregnancy is not likely to raise the risk of having a child with autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability, according to a new study published Friday.

Researchers across Europe reexamined evidence from multiple studies investigating the link between these conditions and the use of paracetamol — called acetaminophen in the United States — and found that these purported associations fell apart after controlling for confounding factors.

    Because people think autism equals very low functioning and intellectually disabled boys, so all those autistic people are both faking it to take autism away from very low functioning and intellectually disabled boys, and are the very low functioning and intellectually disabled boys themselves (if they say otherwise they’re just being kept in an illusion by well intentioned parents - this was allegedly stolen from some movie as The Silence Of The Lambs wasn’t the only place where bigots plagiarized their bigotry) to make the statistics look bad.
