Anti-vaccine groups melt down over RFK Jr. linking autism to Tylenol

The news article discusses the controversy surrounding Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s claim that the use of Tylenol (acetaminophen) is linked to the development of autism. Kennedy, a prominent figure in the anti-vaccine movement, made this assertion during a podcast interview. The article reports that Kennedy's statement triggered a strong reaction from his own anti-vaccine group, which reacted with a tweet denying that Tylenol was the cause of autism. The group's response suggests a disagreement within the anti-vaccine community regarding the validity of Kennedy's claim. The article highlights the ongoing debate and misinformation surrounding the alleged connection between various environmental factors and the development of autism. It emphasizes the need for scientific evidence and expert consensus to guide public understanding of this complex issue, rather than relying on unsubstantiated claims from prominent figures in the anti-vaccine movement.
