checking three claims Trump made about autism

60-Second Summary

President Trump's claims linking Tylenol to autism and suggesting separate MMR vaccinations have been widely condemned by medical experts. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists called the claims "unsettling" and lacking reliable data. While the CDC confirms a rise in autism diagnoses, it contradicts Trump's figures and attributes the increase to improved diagnosis and awareness, not Tylenol. Experts also debunked Trump's claims regarding Amish autism rates and the MMR vaccine, citing discredited research and emphasizing the importance of combined MMR vaccinations.
