US President Donald Trump has made sweeping statements urging Americans not to use the over-the-counter painkiller acetaminophen (paracetamol) during pregnancy, saying it had links to autism.

Most dangerously, he also repeated debunked claims about vaccines causing autism. FRANCE 24’s Vedika Bahl fact-checks these claims in Truth or Fake.
