The Health Secretary was today forced to take the extraordinary step of telling pregnant women to listen to their doctor and not to Donald Trump.
It follows the President’s heavily disputed suggestion overnight that paracetamol is linked to autism.
Those claims have been ridiculed by UK scientists and heavily criticised by autism campaigners.
The US President also made other claims today in New York.
He addressed world leaders at the UN General Assembly.
In a fiery speech he said European countries are "going to hell" because of immigration.
He attacked the UN itself, called climate change the world’s "greatest con job" and once again singled out London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan.
