Tylenol introduced in 1955.

Donald Triplett, the first person diagnosed with autism, born 1933.

Level 1 autism was previously called Asperger’s Syndrome, named after a Nazi pediatrician who studied children with symptoms in 1944.

The timeline doesn’t add up for Tylenol to be a determining factor.

Side note: I think it’s odd how all of these years have double digits at the end but that also might just be an autism thing
