Hard to believe this thread is halfway down page 2. The zone is absolutely flooded with shit, which is the plan.
Anyway, I'm sure the lawyers from Tylenol have made their feeling clear

Health Secretary RFK Jr. says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism
President Trump's health secretary said Tylenol should be used with caution during pregnancy, but solid data linking it to autism is lacking.

George Tidmarsh, head of CDER (basically FDA’s top drug regulator, right under the commissioner) just resigned after an investigation alleging he either used or sought to use (not entirely clear) his position to inflict financial harm on a former associate. Situation is a little unclear but basically:
Tidmarsh directed the FDA to remove some thyroid drugs from the market because it would hurt American Laboratories, a private company owned by one Kevin Tang, which supplies ingredients for certain thyroid medications.
Tidmarsh also tried to extort money from American Laboratories and Tang, according to a lawsuit filed by Aurinia Pharmaceuticals, where Tang is now chairman. Tidmarsh denies the allegations.
Tidmarsh recently singled out an Aurinia drug in a LinkedIn post (lol), criticizing the company’s clinical trial design and implying it shouldn’t have been approved.
Tidmarsh was the CEO of La Jolla Pharmaceutical Company, the same time as when Tang served as Chairman.

Dr. George Tidmarsh was hired in July by FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary to lead the agency’s drug division, a top role regulating much of the country’s pharmaceutical industry that gave Tidmarsh a prominent perch in the Department of Health and Human Services headed by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
A lawyer for Tidmarsh, Joseph Galda, said that he didn’t solicit a bribe.
A spokeswoman for HHS, which wasn’t named as a party to the lawsuit, said Tidmarsh resigned Sunday morning after being placed on administrative leave Friday. The HHS Office of the General Counsel and the Office of the Inspector General were notified of “serious concerns about his personal conduct,” the spokeswoman said.…”
