His words bother you.

But he is right.

Stupid/Evil people will demand we keep harming babies so that drug companies can continue to make more money.

“The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may be simply untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness.”
– Dr. Richard Horton, Editor in Chief of the Lancet

“It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgement of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as an editor of the New England Journal of Medicine.”
– Dr. Marcia Angell, long time Editor in Chief the New England Medical Journal (NEMJ)

“The medical profession is being bought by the pharmaceutical industry, not only in terms of the practice of medicine, but also in terms of the teaching and research. The academic institutions of this country are allowing themselves to be the paid agents of the pharmaceutical industry. It think it’s disgraceful.”
– Arnold Seymour Relman, Harvard professor of Medicine and former Editor in Chief of the New England Medical Journal

“Everyone should know that most cancer research is largely a fraud, and that the major cancer research organizations are derelict in their duties to the people who support them.”

"Too much liquid" - Donald Trump

With inflammatory responses and overwhelming the immune system, the probability of injury and suboptimal training is progressive. That, and vaccines, and jabs (i.e. non-sterilizing injections), are part of a risk management protocol. Proceed accordingly.

RideSpaceMountain said...

He probably shouldn't have said that. It'll work the MSM into a tizzy and then RFK will have a clot of explaining to do.

Ann Althouse said...

He gives material to his adversaries. He didn't need to say "It's too much liquid." Now that will go down on the lists of absurd things Trump has said like "they're eating the pets."

Additionally, with mRNA, there is the risk of persistent damage, particularly with fragments that migrate to unsanctioned areas of the body where they have undesirable, unpredictable effects.

Trump is a man who is never afraid of making a global display of his ignorance and inability to reason.

This is classic, textbook case of a substitute of causation for correlation. A grade school mistake taught in beginner's statistics. The fact that these "experts" are unable to separate them is an indictment of the professionalism of these clowns.

It’s been pointed out to me today that everyone who has ever eaten a banana has either died or will die.

Why isn’t this in the public domain? Is it a cover-up?🤔

n.n said...

His opponents are gluttons, eating his words, which is unhealthy and overwhelming their capacity to properly digest them.

Given the downside, isn't it *too risky* for pregnant women to take Tylenol? Isn't aspirin good enough.

I know that most women don't drink alcohol when they know they are pregnant even though it was a different standard 50-60 years ago.

But to do that, they'll have to talk about it. Which they wouldn't have done absent his absurd thing.

I love that the way this great man speaks drives assholey libtards up the wall. Palin was the same way. They both are/were 100% right and truthful, and that is why scumbag Democrat Party members attack them incessantly. And the fact that libtards who loved and praised the dulcet stupidity of Obama deride good people for occasionally awkward phrasing while speaking off the cuff just shows that libtards are desperate, dangerous fools.
Covfefe!!!

Ride Space Mountain, Thank you for sharing those quotes from within the medical profession. It certainly gives food for thought.

Big-Pharma should be called Big-Harma.

Shot to the arm
PHarma's to blame
They give drugs
A bad name

A recent CDC protocol called for a new-borns to be injected with the RSV vaccines within six hours. And the manufacturer specifically sought approval of the RSV vaccine for new borns. Yet the manufacturer warned that the vaccine should not be adminsitered to anyone with a history of anaphylaxis in reaction to any of the vaccine components. Well, a newborn wouldn't have such a history so I guess it's perfectly safe to use the vaccine on them. And after all, Trump is always the story, not some unfortunate newborn, so I guess TDS is a sort of vaccine for the vaccine makers.

So first off, no study has shown that Tylenol use in pregnancy causes autism in children.

In fact, I listened to an interesting conversation with an epidemiologist who was lead author on a study that RFK Jr actually cited multiple times in this press conference because he did find a positive correlation between Tylenol use in pregnancy and autism. And he actually warned very explicitly against drawing any sort of causal conclusions here.

He brought up the example of rising ice cream sales and rising violent crime in the summertime. And he said that it would be a mistake to assume that ice cream sales are causing violent crime, that actually the thing that's causing both of those things is the heat. So it would be a mistake to assume that Tylenol use during pregnancy is actually causing autism when there might be other underlying things at play, like what underlying health issues does the mother have?

What are her genetics? Why is she actually taking Tylenol repeatedly over the course of her pregnancy? Is it to treat multiple fevers?

These are the sort of questions that researchers need to be asking to actually tease apart cause and effect in these studies.

Trump is not the best speaker - but he isn't poisonous or toxic - like the corrupt democratic party.
No one on the left has any credibility - so who cares how they spin this. They are all snakes and liars.

Peachy said...

Hey lets all take medical advice from Kak.

Autism has shot up to unacceptable levels in children. - and we need to figure out why.
If refraining from taking acetaminophen during pregnancy helps - why not.
The left are spinning this like there are no other options for pain or fever.

Kakistocracy said...

Diagnosis has increased, not necessarily the incidence of autism which is, incidentally, a neurological difference rather than a sickness.

Trump has medical degrees and has been conducting peer reviewed research ??? Who knew?

Next he comes for aspirin. And I did not speak up, for I did not have a headache.

Next will come the snake oil you should take instead . . .

Ann reveals her lack of judgement and reveals the type of thinking that leads to votes for known rapists and lying scumbags.

It is a beautiful people thing. Status consciousness run rampant.

About 10 days ago my wife and I both received the first shot of the 2 dosage Shingrix vaccine for shingles. Its a pretty nasty shot that sets you back for a couple of days. Two days later my wife had a painful rash across the left side of her stomach around to her back which turned out to be shingles. Our family doctor had never seen shingles activated by Shingrix but this was the 3rd case seen by an internist we go to in NY. Neither of our doctors have reported this situation. I have a feeling this happens more frequently than the 0.10% of cases that are reported. She was given Valtrex but we probably caught it a bit too late and she has been in a lot of pain and for a while had to take codeine over night. I reported the situation to the manufacturer of the vaccine and received an acknowledgement but there has been no further investigation by them. My impression is that they really don't want to hear about it!! This is just to remind people that all vaccines carry a risk. In this case we would probably have received the shot even if we knew of this risk. I am not so sure about the Covid vaccine - the real risks are just starting to emerge and its not a pretty picture. That is why all vaccines need to be properly evaluated before they are generally made available.

jim said...

wow, so .. coherent

Wince said...

Lately, have you noticed lots of adults with what look like kiddy bandaids over what appears a site on their upper arm?

As if to say the risk of the injection is a germ entering the body topically, not whatever has been injected into the musculature/blood stream.

Wince said...

Because putting a bandaid on the back of your latex glove in a hospital setting before putting it on a patient isn't a source of contamination?

rehajm said...

He gives material to his adversaries.

This kind of stuff is such horseshit. What politician doesn't give material to his adversaries? Do you listen to what comes out of the mouths of Democrats lately?

...you don't like him. We get it....

rehajm said...

...Joe Biden steps in it and he gets a supporting what he meant to say was. Trump isn't scripted and speaks off the cuff but what he's saying here isn't hard to understand. Get over it...

“Given the downside, isn't it *too risky* for pregnant women to take Tylenol? Isn't aspirin good enough.”

Aspirin as well as other anti-inflammatories are contraindicated for pregnant women, due to fetal kidney problems and heart defects. Also the risk for miscarriage is increased.

Trump is pronouncing "acetaminophen" the right way. ~ Ezra Klein

Actually the correct pronunciation of “acetaminophen” is “Ep-stein-Files”.

Breezy said...

My niece has a 1.5 yr old, is a nurse, and used her knowledge and skills to adjust the vaccine schedule for her child. This involves eliminating, pushing out in time, de-coupling, reducing dose, etc. of the various vaccines. Just the kind of thing the CDC should have done long before now.

Peachy said...

KAK - you should read this.

Breezy said...

Too much liquid == too much vaccine liquid, in context. If the left had any coherent policy on the subject, this statement would not be a thing to exploit. Get thee a policy, Dems! Quit being knee-jerk jerks. (Imho)

Peachy said...

OT: Wow. The Atlantic is printing something vaguely honest about left wing terrorism.

Peachy said...

"Trump wasn’t imagining things about Tylenol and autism. There was a meta analysis released by Harvard school of public health last month, which came to that conclusion. Would be nice if the media stopped treating him like a retarded freak in response to their own ignorance."

Harvard disagrees with you.

But you never miss an opportunity to say stupid ignorant things.

Inga said...

“This involves eliminating, pushing out in time, de-coupling, reducing dose, etc. of the various vaccines.”

I don’t know about reducing the dose and still being effective. Decoupling of the MMR isn’t done in the US, as the licensing is for measles, mumps and rubella together in one shot.

“In the U.S., the individual components of the MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella) vaccine are not available as separate shots for routine immunization. Instead, the vaccine is offered as a single, combined injection.”

“Single-antigen mumps, measles, and rubella vaccines were developed and licensed in the US but are no longer manufactured or available.”

Maybe Trump’s CDC can get on top of this and make the single antigen shots available.

Chris said...

Already I'm seeing insane people in my feeds, going on and on about Trump this and trump that and AUTISM FOREVER!!! As if it's a sports team or a school cheer. People screaming from the tops of their lungs that correlation is not causation. Well duh. But these people are not statisticians just idiots with a vocabulary. If trump said there was a link between prenatal alcohol consumption and encephalitis (encephalopathy), people would go nuts! And pregnant liberal women would START drinking more while screaming CORRELATION DOES NOT EQUAL CAUSATION!! What is wrong with an ABUNDANCE of caution? If there may be a link between acetaminophen, and autism (traditional autism not my child is quirky autism). Why not exercise caution? It's only for 9 months for Pete's sake.

buwaya said...

Autism isn't just a "difference". Some parts of the spectrum can seem like a personality thing, but even a mild case of what used to be called Aspergers can be socially/professionally debilitating in many ways. And severe Autism cases are also up.
It is not just down to diagnoses. It may be due to the increase in parental age, but we don't know that, there aren't proper studies of that either. It seems that the medical industry (anywhere) just hasn't taken Autism seriously.
There are major differences between the US and other developed countries, and it does not seem that this is being looked into either.

Anthony said...

"Correlation doesn't mean causation!!11!1!!!"

"(Unless we want it to.)"

Dang. More bad news for corrupt democratics.

This topic has become a boring pointless theological debate.

buwaya said...

"It may be due to the increase in parental age, but we don't know that, there aren't proper studies of that either."

I haven't paid close attention to autism studies for awhile, in large part because it is a very messy field with a lot of conflicting data and no clear smoking guns. On top of that, the diagnostic criteria are somewhat more flexible than they are for many conditions.

That said, the last time I did look into it, my recollection is that of all the various signals in the data, parental age—especially paternal age—was the most significant. Of course, we must not do anything to promote having children in one's twenties rather than in one's forties. That would be right out of The Handmaid's Tale.

buwaya said...

If it is at least in part due to paternal age, that would totally invert "Handmaids Tale", no? Young mens semen (or of likely lads anyway) would be a valuable commodity.

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

I don't know what my mother was taking when she was pregnant with me. However, I do know one thing with... metaphysical certitude, that my mother is a pill popping partisan.

RideSpaceMountain said...

"Young mens semen (or of likely lads anyway) would be a valuable commodity."

Doubly so if unvaxxed.

JIM said...

I've noticed a correlation between Trump talking about anything and TDS.

LibertarianLeisure said...

Autism in children is evidenced in classrooms in elementary school, from my exposure anyways.
Have first-hand experience giving reading, math, writing lessons as support personnel. Many times, they are the smartest one in a class, ( not always, but oftentimes. ) But they cannot focus, have problems regulating their emotions/ reactions, in 4th grade but behavior is more akin to preschool during escalations. Come back after lunch and nurse visit for their meds, a little "off." So sad to see.

Matt said...

Trump also - oddly - questioned why infants get the hepatitis B shot at birth. He seems to think - incorrectly - that hepatitis B is ONLY sexually transmitted to babies. And so, he suggested that children should not receive the vaccine until they were 12 years old, which raises another question in his logic. But more to the point hepatitis B can be passed from infected mothers to their babies so it’s important for all babies to be vaccinated in case the mother doesn’t know that she has this virus in her blood. Hepatitis B can also survive for 7 days outside of the body on things such as playground equipment, a water bottle, a school desk and many other surfaces. If infected at a young age kids are more likely to go undiagnosed and become a chronic carrier of the virus, which can lead to liver disease and cancer. That is why the vaccine is important to give at birth.
