00:00Did Donald Trump just blame paracetamol for autism?
00:03The UK health secretary just fired back, and he's not holding back either.
00:07Speaking on live TV, West Streeting urged people to ignore Trump's medical claims.
00:12Why? Because a massive 2024 study of 2.4 million kids showed no link between paracetamol and autism.
00:20Trump had claimed that taking the painkiller during pregnancy was behind rising rates of autism and ADHD.
00:25But top UK health bodies say there's zero scientific proof of that.
00:30The NHS still recommends paracetamol during pregnancy, as long as it's short-term and low-dose.
00:36Experts warn that Trump's comments could scare women away from safe treatments.
00:40And worse, it fuels harmful blame on mothers and families with autistic children.
00:45Medical experts from around the world agree there's no solid evidence behind Trump's claims.
00:51As Streeting said, listen to the NHS, not Donald Trump.
00:54Because when it comes to your health, facts matter more than headlines.
