Autism and Tylenol: what the science says | CBC Radio
The Trump administration has said that Tylenol may cause autism, and that leucovorin may treat it โ but the established science does not support those claims, and health professionals around the world...

I think I'm afraid to look. So sorry ... interesting to think AI relies so thoroughly on pirated intellectual property. Maybe our students would rather hear the real thing?@janisthiessen.bsky.social
