U.S. — A new popular trend was reported to be sweeping America in the wake of HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy's announcement linking the use of a popular over-the-counter painkiller to a higher risk of autism, as pregnant women began downing Tylenol in hopes that their sons would start electric car companies and become billionaires.

Following Kennedy's press conference advising medical professionals to consider the potential increased risk of autism due to Tylenol use during pregnancy, social media users reported a noticeable flood of videos depicting pregnant women swallowing Tylenol by the bottleful to improve their chances of giving birth to the world's next eccentric, visionary billionaire-inventor-entrepreneur.

"This stuff might be my own little lottery ticket," said expecting mother Carla Renfro in a viral TikTok clip. "Once I heard RFK saying Tylenol might make babies autistic, I knew I had to start gobbling this stuff like crazy to up the odds of having a genius baby. With any luck — and enough Tylenol — my son will grow up to invent interplanetary rockets, change the world, and become the wealthiest man on Earth. It might be a long shot, but it's good to aim high."

Other mothers-to-be were following suit. "This must be the secret recipe," said 35-weeks pregnant Helen March just before downing a bottle of Extra Strength Tylenol in a Facebook video. "The government has been keeping this information from us for too long, but now it's my turn to have a little Elon. C'mon, baby boy, mama needs a billionaire Big Tech mogul!"

At publishing time, Tylenol was forced to add a disclaimer to its packaging that read "Unlikely to increase chances of giving birth to super-intelligent international businessmen."
