In what they call the largest study ever done, researchers found using marijuana while pregnant may increase the risk that a child will develop autism.

"Women who used cannabis during pregnancy were 1.5 times more likely to have a child with autism," said study author Dr. Darine El-Chaâr, a maternal fetal medicine specialist and clinical investigator at Ottawa Hospital Research Institute in Canada.Smoking weed and coronavirus: Even occasional use raises risk of Covid-19 complications"These are not reassuring findings. We highly discourage use of cannabis during pregnancy and breastfeeding," she said.

"Pregnant women or women contemplating pregnancy should be encouraged to discontinue use of marijuana for medicinal purposes in favor of an alternative therapy for which there are better pregnancy-specific safety data," ACOG states in its recommendations. "There are insufficient data to evaluate the effects of marijuana use on infants during lactation and breastfeeding, and in the absence of such data, marijuana use is discouraged.

Tell that to Pelosi who mentions weed more than jobs in her 3 Trillion stimulus bill lol 😂

memphistigerjeb Independent of a study, what kind of selfish dumbass smokes week while pregnant ? I don't need a study to know that smh.

Big pharma paying you to rerun this story over and over.... God knows they sponsored the study....

Shit news

So that explains the surge in autism. Soon almost everyone will have it and they can be autistic together.

Well I have a child with Autism and I never smoked pot. My Dad smoked a lot of pot and it didn’t cause Autism in myself or all of my siblings.

Could CNN be more anti weed?

now do vaccines and autism..

You guys don’t have any other stories to promote? This one is deceptive and worn out...regardless of different warning attached. Focus on something more important... like how early research shows Cannabis high in CBD may help fight COVID-19

Didn’t CNN advocate using marijuana?

Autism can come from many drugs, Cigarettes, toxins and Vaccines! Yes I said Vaccines remember clowns there are chemicals that are in poorly made vaccines that have metals that cause Autism!

Y’all are garbage. Jesus h Jones this is so stupid

Look the study

It’s been found that anything that disrupts the serotonin system during development of an unborn baby can possibly increase the odds of autism. THC is known to affect certain neuro-chemical balances within the brain.

Really, CNN How many years ago did that come out! You are so far behind in the news!

This article is just for the comments...what parents admit it so they can take the kids😮😱

Smoking is bad for the baby... no shit 🙄

Who are you writing this for? That is a no brainer! Oh, never mind, I answered my own question

I am a BLACK person born in this country of AFRICAN ancestry ..as are most Blacks born in the U.S. I am called AFRICAN-AMERICAN! Kamala Harris was born in California and has AFRICAN ancestry via Jamaica 🇯🇲 (the AFRICAN Diaspora). Kamala is as AFRICAN-AMERICAN as I am.

I mean... duh. Did anyone in 2020 still think it was a good idea to ingest drugs or alcohol while pregnant?

People who actually take pregnancy seriously would never smoke anything or drink. How dumb do you have to be to think carrying out a combustion reaction and inhaling the gases would be good for a developing fetus?

And watch this get debunked like the vaccine one was in a short time (by science/research standards)...

Who the F would do that?!!

Of course

KamalaHarris is cool with it.

Or worse.

Stop. Just stop already.

adolwyn What!? Not vaccinations!? The anti-vax crowd won’t believe that’s possible. 😂

What’s happening in this picture? Are they lighting it from the middle?

If you use marijuana or any drug when pregnant you are disgraceful. The baby should be taken off you at birth and you should immediately be sterilised.

We all know you shouldn’t smoke when pregnant! CNN is bad for you all the time! Fact

People that ever thought that smoking marijuana while pregnant was okay should be locked up and the key thrown away!

Imagine that..

So what does drinking do? Get the fuck out of here with this anti-weed bullshit.

What the fuck NO SHIT! Whoever suggested pregnant women use marijuana is a complete idiot.

It also increases stupidity in the classroom. I didn’t need a study to figure that out.

Who calls it 'the largest study ever done'? 🤔

There have been many studies that SHOW marijuana has a bad effect not only on lungs, but brain tissues, and NOT just temporary! It damages brain tissue and lowers IQ, relating to higher functioning, memory, cognition, even body movement! Not worth the damage for a temporary high!

Why ye keep broadcasting this. Good pay on it?

And researchers also found that if you play with fire you may get burnt!

Are you trying to make people hit that unfollow button?

Lol I think you need a study on the people who did this study

Nothing to do w the vaccines while prego and afternoon the 26 doses in yeAr one? Come on who believes this nonsense

Getting tired of seeing crap like this with everything else going on. Especially since you've posted this multiple times

Democrats, always the party of shackles and chains.

What’s with all this marijuana hate? Marijuana causes heart disease and now this. This ad I mean news story was brought you by..... study’s have shown a link to autism and vaccines and showers have been linked to increased cancer risks. it’s all bullshit.

Democrats love to put things in place which you seem is a service or luxury or RIGHT and give you enough rope to snare you in so you’ll be entrapped or indentured for life under their ideology/system. If systemic racism really exists, guess who puts in place? Democrats...

I can see this and often thought it.

Well of course so you don’t use it.

I get this same tweet? /photo every day on my twitter feed!? 🙄 Does CNN tweet the same thing every day? I don’t smoke marijuana but seeing this every day, maybe I should start? 🧐

Is the study implying that all parents with an Autistic child smoke weed? Asking for a friend 🤔😒

Now do a study on the effects of alcohol and pregnancy.

Oh really, you don’t say?

Pretty sure common sense would say don't drink or smoke weed while pregnant. But hey. Do a full ass study on it and waste fuck loads of money.

B.S. I am on the spectrum and my mom never ever drank or smoked anything. Autism is just a label meaning we think differently. Stop labeling everything. Denesovians in Siberia had 'autism' 67 thousand years ago, at least. Maybe it's meant to be here. Get over yourselves.

What's your point... So do cigarettes and beer...but they are legal!

So what's your point... So do you cigarettes and beer but they're legal

What a stupid study. MAY is the operative word. So, marijuana has been around and used for literally thousands of years BEFORE autism existed as a condition. PLASTIC use grew and suddenly autism exploded in our children. No correlation there, right? FakeScience Lying

I have a very tiny study here that says is full of shit.

FakeNews Vaccines cause Autism 🥱

I thank god my wife doesn't know wtf Marijuana is. But I do.

Shouldn't be smoking ANYTHING when pregnant.

MichaelRapaport I think most people understand using druga or alcohol while pregnant will hurt the baby! Why is this even a current event RIGHT NOW?

Like alkohol and other things van change coding. Where you lost brain?

So is drinking and smoking 😟

MichaelRapaport So Camel-A Harris should keep talking about how great it was to smoke weed. The left should keep pushing to legalize it!!

MichaelRapaport So parents are going to have to accept blame for their children's autism finally, rather than pointing fingers virtually everywhere else? Come to think of it the people I know with autistic kids WERE all major potheads.

How much money do CNN get from the lobbyist? Cause god damn you hate weed this week. What does the 'doctors Medicin' do to the baby?

MichaelRapaport Full of shit.. just get ready for those needles Nudge nudge 😉😉

Any drug will dopes

Kamala Harris IS AFRICAN INDIAN AMERICAN (born in Oakland,CA) .Via JAMAICA! AFRICAN slaves were sold into slavery, sent to JAMAICA! The AFRICAN DIASPORA! She has AFRICAN heritage! Her father is an AFRICAN Jamaican-American economics emeritus professor of Stanford university.

Anyone that thinks getting high during pregnancy poses zero risk whatsoever is committed to getting high no matter what anyone says

Nope, vaccines do that. JesusMatters

sunnybabybunny Were thye smoking it, edibles? Hows was it taken? Smoking in general is very bad during pregnancy.

何卒、嘘は語らないで下さい😢😢😢 宜しくお願い致します🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️ 私の薬剤についての質問をツイートしています。ご覧下さい。

I would have told you that and also why so many brains are screwed up and warped today especially the leftist anarchist dem libs from smoking that crap that distorts their brains

So so so stupid

Y’all pushin this hard. I feel judged.

This is a really fucking bad article about a really fucking bad 'study'

Why the hell is CNN hammering cannabis so hard? We can smell that something's up!! And it's vaccine that's causing autism. Cannabis has actually been proven to help children. IDIOTS!!

What about the study in Canada where a handful of sativa strains reduces chance of covid! Stfu CNN!

U see is obvious Is bad

😂 this lie again. Its the pharceuticals pushed into the mother’s bodies and subsequently the babies when theyre born.

ESPECIALLY when you light the joint from the center.

Why was money wasted on this study? A pregnant woman should not be smoking anything.

CNN has been tageting Mary Jane for a few weeks now. Just in time for Harris to get in office. She loves locking up weed smokers.

MAY

Straight from the department of.......NO SHIT

Y’all really think smoking pot wont affect your babies?!? Does it affect your brain? Then sure as shit it affects their tiny little brains and bodies. If it’s not addictive- wait a few months to smoke. Jfc

What the actual F**K is with all of this anti-weed crap CNN twitter has been tweeting all week? Y'all the ones who had a 4 part documentary from Sanjay Gupta called 'Weed'

Since when that if you're high you have a normal cognitive function..so of course the developing fetus or baby can be affected .....

Bullshit!

Does 'largest study ever done' mean a bunch of pregnant ladies got ripped?

Marijuana is 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

This story keeps getting retweeted by over and over again. Why?

MichaelRapaport Nah bro

Our current society is composed of a bunch of lazy dumb shits, because the majority of them smoke weed. You see it every day at just about every retail establishment where you seek customer service.

What? Putting smoke in your body while pregnant is bad? Why am I so surprised ,😮

Among other things

How about thx helps prevent glaucoma, helps heart rate and your respiratory and helps ppl who suffers very poor eating habits . But they wouldn’t say all that tho .

Who the hell conducts that kind of damn test?

Oh stop it, its either vaccines or food additives or second hand smoke & a vast number of things We have see so often, that contradict each other. I know plenty of weed smonking parents, hundreds, & not 1 has an autistic child. This is JUNK science & likely pro big pharma funded.

Anybody that uses weed while pregnant is lacking in brain cells.

MichaelRapaport That’s news? Did we not already establish that pregnant women should avoid things such as this?

Vaccines cause autism

Wow it’s really is true news and not fake news. Congratulations fake news CNN. But it doesn’t take a genius to know that smoking anything will lead to disorder or disease

Can CNN please drop it's fucking anti Cannabis movement. This shit is ridiculous.

You guys already printed this bullshit before. Smh.....do alcohol next.

thats complete bullshit. i know know so many women that dont touch it and have kids with autism. and i know just as many that do and dont have kids with autism.. go bark up another tree, cuz this is a lie

Placenta doesn't need lack of oxygen any smoke inhalation is bad I never smoked pregnant ok read the secret life of the unborn Swedish research on in utero

Also in a recent study, Watching CNN may cause stupidity

Oh so IT’S NOT VACCINES!

That explains Bill de Blasio.

| NEXT LIE! | HOW LOW CAN CommunistNewsNetwork GO! |

Not codoning smoking anything while pregnant. But, everyone has Austism, according to the people that decides, who has Autism.

Utter bollocks, autism is not a disease or an abnormality.

MichaelRapaport

What’s wrong with that?

Thanks for the not news sucker.

Whoa and its still not going to stop them from puffing. SMH

I don’t think that’s how you smoke weed

Is this?

Weed should be for adults only.

How many times will you repost this

Who rolls a joint like that ?

yo just stop, this is like the 4th time you guys bump this study.

Bullshit

GovRicketts Woah substance use while pregnant will cause problems. Who would have thought.

Now fake news CNN do you link someone stupid enough to smoke week during a pregnancy will change their behavior because of this study ?

secupp I BeLIeVe sCIeNcE

brilliant. this is what our taxes go to for research? what about shrimp that smoke weed?

Bullshit

Damn, someone really wants to emphasize that legalization bad before the election. Crime Bill Joey, is that you?

Yeah right! Some parents has never smoked weed and they have children with autism. I know parents who smoked in my day and children doesn’t have autism. It’s generational. It use to be used to help people to eat and settle nausea before people started selling it for a living.

Hahaha....but not the shots you give the babies?

Because of Democrats’ obstruction, the extra federal unemployment aid expired. The PPP is closed with no second round in sight. No new money for testing or schools. No second round of checks to families. Democrats held all this hostage for non-COVID-related liberal priorities.

'The study did not capture the amount and type of marijuana the women used during pregnancy. Nor did the study know when during the pregnancy or how often women used it. And while the study could only show association, not cause and effect, ...' CNN, you suck at science.

What? Its not the vaccines? (Insert sarcasm)

Nothing new. If you’re pregnant then you shouldn’t be smoking anything. If you do choose to smoke or dodrugs, you’re a real POS. No ifs, and, or butts about it

What a pointless article

Please stop posting fake bullshit about marijuana. There's plenty of real news to report on

why do you care? Do you not support third term abortions? Then why do you all of the sudden care to report on anything that can affect the baby in the womb? If the baby is not a human until they are born- then why do you care? Let me be clear- I believe in protecting babies

So is this the real reason (not vaccines ) for the increase in autism? Think women are lying about using while pregnant?

In other news...grass is green

Did this study have any positive results or are you entirely anti Cannabis?

Bs! The child gets autism from their poisonous vaccines!!

Junk science from the same doctors who said hydroxychloroquine should be used to treat COVID-19. junkscience fakenews

Causes heart damage last week now autism this week. CNN promoted the benefits of weed running up to the legalization in many dates. I guess trump is right again. Fake news

1.5 times more likely to have a child with autism. 1.5 wow that’s significant proof? Really? but then again the source is CNN. I’m a parent of an autistic son and my wife never smoked pot. We need a cure not bogus bs news like this

Never had a joint in my life but 2 kids with autism. Let’s take this study with a pinch of salt.

Oh look - another way to blame mom.

anyone with half a brain cell wouldn't smoke during pregnancy or her child will have some sort of a about doing a study on curing cancer which i bet can be cured but they won't cure it because hospitals and the tobacco industry would lose out on millions

MUST’VE BEEN A LOT OF VOLUNTEERS WHO GOT HIGH 😎

So no actual study, no actual testing. Doctor's read old medical records, and based the theories soley on peoples honesty about drug use during pregnancy on the intake form, from cases from 2007 through 2017.... Weak, CNN, weak....

Lie. Big western Lies to discredit the most useful herb from Africa.

You sure it isnt all the vaccines shots they are giving babies immediately after birth? Some of those shots have 50+ strands of shit in them.

Reefer Madness 2020.0

Wtf why would anyone think it is ok to use weed when pregnant! You literally can’t take anything except Tylenol, but some think it’s ok to use marijuana? At least enough to have a sample for these studies?!?! These people shouldn’t be having kids. Morons.

Hey SpeakerPelosi did you hear that? How is it according to you weed is good for COVID19? DUMMASS

RyanGrieveAB Bogus ... it’s the vaccines causing the autism

Bulls**t! No one heard of autism till 'vaccines' were developed. People been smoking weed forever. FAKENEWS

The food we eat

I wonder who the dummy is that paid for the study. You don’t need to finish second grade to know that marijuana can hurt somebody.

Another “this may cause autism” study 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

BULLSHIT. This is media scare tactics

This is not shocking, and perhaps the some of the anti-vaxxers should stop smoking weed. KerryKennedyRFK

How many times are you gonna repost this?

So, you can basically link anything to anything else with statistics. 100% of people who drink water will eventually die, for instance.

Just now realizing this?

this is the same stupid picture you used to tell us that marijuana wasn’t good for the heart. Don’t you have any other marijuana pictures? And why is that person lighting the middle of the joint?

Pot should be legalized in the USA at the Federal Level 🇺🇸

Actually the study should have just said smoking. Just like all the studies that have been done before that shows smoking while pregnant increase the chance of autism.

TheRealUSAFlag Hey loook peggyhall ... it’s not vaccines...

Naw I have multiple examples that say different

You’ve become the Crap News Network. Shame on you. Peddling such lies.

Why do you keep posting this with that emo ass joint? It’s sad. We outchea rolling blunts and backwoods. Take that little ass dooby back to 1993.

Commonality doesn’t necessarily denote causality. Either way no woman should be smoking anything while pregnant. 🤷‍♂️

Women that smoke anything whilst pregnant should be locked up in an insane asylum

Second story this week from you trying to paint marijuana as a bad thing. Who’s paying you ? Big tobacco ? The government? NRA ? Who ?

Now do vaccines.

They probably were probably smoking mids.

I’m confused. Has it not been proven for many years, and recommended, that during pregnancy it’s best to avoid alcohol and (normal) smoking? Isn’t it just best to avoid all non-prescribed drugs and, those that can be done without, whilst pregnant?

Still not legalised in the U.K Still adults and children with epilepsy have no access Still I have to buy of dangerous street dealers Still I can’t access it another form, other than smoking It! legaliseit

I call bullshit. Painkillers cause autism.

Mending ini gan, paling baru dramanya wkwkwk

I swear... MJ must be making too many states too much money.

What a bunch of BS. There's a lot of that being spread around the US.

Nobody is saying pregnant women should be smoking pot.

FAKE NEWS ALERT WTF is this bullshit CNN

Everybody at CNN has huge stakes in the alcohol Industry. You weirdos have been shitting on weed for the last two weeks when there tons of more shit to report on.

Such BS

Duuuuuh that’s not new lol

So maybe it was the wacky baccie and not the vaccinations that was the cause of the increase since the sixties mmmh.

So you shouldn’t get high while pregnant? Thank god for this study.

Pretty sure that’s bullshit. Thanks for the heavily edited pop science CNN.

For the past few days CNN has posted anti marijuana articles, it almost seems like lobbying is taking place 👀

This study didn’t test cause & effect. It also didn’t ask the women dosage, frequency of usage, OR method of consumption. Meaning...your study really doesn’t give us any ACTUAL data. There are so many variables that weren’t considered.

legalizeit

With research being 50/50, why tf would anyone even want to risk it? Cause you’re “woke” and google told you it’s okay? Weed isn’t a priority nor a need.

CNN given me a bad vibe.

Oh come on CNN. What's next? Why don't you call it cannabis? racism?

More Fake news Designed to Panic the Population and REVERT the masses back to Pharmaceutical Disparity. cnni you have deep State ties to the Pharmaceutical Lies. America, Give me realDonaldTrump 4 more Years and I will blow the Dust Off this Bullshit!🇺🇸 WhiteHouse

What utter tosh, it doesn't show causation just coincidence. There are many things that show up coincidentally when researching autism.

Lies

Weed is medicine, cbd oil cures cancer. CNN is a joke Also pot smokers are not easy to brainwash by propaganda like CNN for example

If you want to smoke pot have inferior baby by all means. This will make it easy to dominate them.

This study is a garbage pile of anecdotal Association

You mean vaccines given during pregnancy linked to Autism

You know what else is dangerous for pregnant women? Roller coasters. Guess we should make those illegal too.

Hit me up in 18 years

So what. Doesn't mean it shouldn't be legalized at the federal level. Doesn't mean that people should be locked up in cages for selling it or using it. God I'm so sick of the mainstream media looking for every single excuse to demonize marijuana.

IsItTimeForA Is any 'Scientific study' that begins with 'May' actually worth a wank ?

I knew it.

It’s the age of the parents

Lobbyists really pounding hard on marihuana with a lot of fake studies lately... My favorite, marihuana makes you weak vs Covid

autism is a genetic disorder, but in our genome some genes can be turned on/off due to environmental factors. Alcohol is legal and causes fetal alcohol syndrome. Pregnant women shouldn’t be using substances at all so this is a moot point if trying to use it against legalization

Yeah right! The white supremacists told the world for decades that marijuana was bad because brown skinned people profitted the most economically. Now that since its been discredited, they seek a new argument.

And you had to do a study for that... every woman that I know and used marijuana it happened to her child

I don’t think most stoners think you should smoke anything while pregnant lmao

I think if you try to light the middle of a joint like this person maybe the problem is your DNA

vaccinating pregnant mothers creates many problems for the unborn child. Adding additional chemicals and pollutants add to the many problems.

AND vaccines too!

Jeezus..first time u don’t have coronavirus in your headline and you resort to weed headline again with a different spin 🤦🏼‍♀️

anotha one

thats a lie.

No shit Sherlock but we legalized it anyway for the almighty dollar

No shit

2020 Election Poll (Please give me a follow if you can!)

And yet that child will still be more cognitive than Joe Biden.

Duh, you had to spend tax payers dollars to figure that out.

Yeah, well, if I forget shit after smoking weed, who knows what happens inside a womb? No, I don’t need ppl telling me to read an article, It’s a rethorical question for f sakes

yall really going hard on the anti weed stuff lately. fuckin nerds

So Governor in Michigan defined the shops as essential

Explain to me why marijuana is legal?

At best, CNN is doubling down on stupid. At worst, they prolly got paid off to help short the marijuana industry

So does Tylenol in some people! If you are pregnant you should be off some meds depending what a good DR says! Marijuana is one of those drugs you should be off at that point of your life!

This is interesting because CNN is one of the number one news outlets that were pushing for legalization of marijuana

Posting this again?

Similar situation was with vaccines. This kind of information spreads really fast and makes people less trusting in science

Autism caused by vaccines, specially MMR

Hmmm its clear CNN is now in bed with Big Pharma to push these shitty articles hoping something will stick. Weed= bad, pills=$$$

Tried looking at the benefits at all?

Everyone knows no alcohol no drugs not even iron tablets from doctor stay natural and toxin free making babies

They new since the 70s that smoking cigarettes can cause lung cancer and yet 50 years later they are still selling cigarettes

Know shit I would have never thought

Yeah and vaccinations too

I have never smoked tobacco or weed and I have children with ASD.

I’m a huge proponent of cannabis use but not during pregnancy and not before the age of 25. The brain is still developing then.

What else can cnn come up.with ?what has joe Biden done for us ?

Thank goodness we spend so much money on these very important studies. Maybe a better use of money would be to sterilize anyone with ZERO common sense.

What is with all these click-baity 'marijuana is bad for you' articles lately? This is the third I've seen in 24 hours. Trying to drive up your interactions or sponsored by Anheuser-Busch?

I call BS on this “research”

One of your viewers just shot up the White House. You might want to look into that and report.

Every single day with Reefer Madness articles...did weed bang your mom and make your dad abandon you as a small wtf

mayelanino what I tell you

“The largest study ever done” - really? I would bet a few hundred $ that your statement is bullshit and false. FakeNews FactCheck disinformation

It is the chemicals in plant fats that they have been in our food for decades. It is🖕ing our biologies up. Fake Frakenfoods are causing all kinds of diseases and they are aware of this. Overpopulation means man made chemical foods. Evolution

You can take this study, shout it in a sock, and throw it off an overpass

And how was that study conducted?

Believe none of this. This is the agenda of Baby Boomers who cant stand equality or marijuana. Yet alcohol is ten times worse and way more detimental and addicting. Stop with this bullshit you liars. I dont believe a thing I read and half of what I see because of you MEDIA

Smoking is still worse. Legalize it or make tobacco illegal as well

If you should not drink while pregnant then you should not smoke anything either. So, this report tells us nothing new.

Just stop.

CNN's got beef with weed... I don't

Anything that prevents diseases is considered bad or does something in your system!! lol. ShareLove!!

I have 5 and none of them have autism

Nice try. My mom NEVER smoked weed when she was pregnant in the 50's.

I'm autistic, mother didn't and to this day does not drink or smoke. However the ganja does help with my depression, autism, and anxiety. I now feel like an average everyday American. Thanks marijuana, you are a beacon of light in this world full of sjw retards like CNN.

You’ve been running a number of stories lately about the ill effects of cannabis. Obviously most of your ad revenue comes from big Pharma. OBVIOUSLY. It would be nice if you did some stories about the numerous benefits. But we know where your bread is buttered.

'Doing drugs during while you are pregnant is bad' what a novel fucking concept

Now we have every mama on here with mixed kids talking about how smart their waterhead kid is.

Well, well, we’ll....

Really CNN! This is what you choose to focus in on... Notice anything happening to the country currently? How about our mischievous Gov...anything? Anything at all?

No one is going to believe you. They are clueless and just don’t realize that the level of THC are so much higher and more dangerous than most of them smoked in the 1960s to 1990s.

The 'bad for your heart' headline didn't get enough clicks? 😆

Keep legalizing it in State after State : for, of all things, in the name of Holy Ghost!, 'recreational use', and all the rottenness will stumble out.

Who's paying you to slander? Purdue maybe?

And teens who smoke pot may develop 'awesome-ism' where everything to them is awesome.

someone cnn must be the one rolling that catastrophe

What's with the CNN 'weed is bad for you' push lately?

Not condoning using Marijuana but since they don't know the cause of autism how can they claim this?

So it can lead to heart problems, pregnancy issues and other mecical issues but lets legalize it. Great idea!!

it’s really a damn shame people are so fucking stupid that would take a study to realize this. Our herd needs some serious “thinning.”

Can y’all stop posting this.

Was anyone saying the opposite 🤣

Anything to keep hemp illegal

Not a cause and effect study. I call these “survey” studies and they are based on people being truthful. Not to likely considering it was done pre-legalization. Also the study size is tiny.

I have read that before.

If you’re doing drugs or smoking cigarettes while pregnant you should have your child taken from you so it can be properly raised because you’d be a horrible parent

Don’t smoke weed while pregnant. Common sense!

We already knew that from the dopers whose kids have disabilities. Keep smoking dope, Johnny & Nancy; more kids will be born disabled.

Oh look, vaccines are causing autism ... let's blame something else.

Omg seriously? First out hearts now this? Something smells fishy with all this.......

Ya think? Duuu

Multiple studies have shown a strong genetic association to autism. If any studies show a link to a substance, it's best to be wary until replication and multiple rounds of peer review can have their way with it.

BS

Are you just gonna release one stat a day from that study using the same stupid picture of someone trying to light their fingers on fire?

Try again fauci and gates vaccine pushers... it ain’t marijuana!!!! Y’all crooks dig the deepest ditches..,

Sorry. It’s full of shit.

This might be a good opportunity to remind folks that endocannabinoids are naturally-occuring in breast milk, & that a discussion about what cannabis is or is not requires a much more complete discussion.

Here come all the potheads who insist that smoking weed makes people superhuman. 🤣🤣

yes because we sure can't blame hfcs and other toxic additives to the foods we eat every day. We consume more chemicals than any other country. Other countries banned these additives. The highest number of autistic cases are centered around chicken and pig farms. Steroids.

Bullshit my 2 didn’t

I see the narrative change.... going to blame marijuana for the autism..... NOT the vaccines, no!!!! Fake News Diversion, Shift blame, BillGates it won’t work. We know too much now. PainIsComing WWG1WGA

Yeah and most will have that illness called DemocRat.

Wow cnn is going full on Big Pharma. Guess that’s where they’re getting their money these days.

Doubt it. That's what vaccines are for.

They always find a way to make it the mom’s fault.

What’s the more ridiculous theory: 1. Vaccines may cause autism Or 2. Smoking weed causes autism 🤷‍♂️

힌트는 아시네---오리야 길이야--- 똥통에 빠지지 않도록

CNN FakeNews FakePandemic You mean vaccines ? 😳

I hear that scientists who smoke a lot of weed tend to conduct tremendous studies on the effects of cannabis on people.

Hello!!!

This makes so much sense. Nearly everyone I know in my age group (except one) with an autistic kid smoked weed while pregnant.

We need a study for this

Really! Drinking alcohol or smoking cigs during pregnancy has been studied at length and resulted in little more than public health notices. We advise pregnant mothers to the dangers and we are ok with what they choose.

Bullshit

Vaccines are even more linked to autism!

This is what CNN thinks is the big story. That is why CNN is not even a third-rate organization. Let me help you CNN this is a big story ion what happens in Democrat run cities.

Did they do the same study of children of parents who have never smoked weed?

Sure

Why would any concerned responsible mother to be use marijuana while pregnant? They should avoid most meds and marijuana unless they are getting treatment for some invasive illness during the pregnancy.

So you shouldn't use drugs while pregnant? No f*cking sh*t.

MeowMeowCatCafe The Autism comes from Vaccinations, which are cultured from fetal tissue, destroying life to disrupt life

Wow, if only we'd thought to do some research before flying headlong down the 'legalize pot', 'it's safer than alcohol', 'what could go wrong? ' path we're on.....

Funny how your “Strict Study Standards” apply to a virus study, but not a Canadian Weed Study 😂 y’all are fukn pathetic CableNewsSucks CNNIsADumpsterFire

Who said that crap? I smoked with all my children. 1- is a chef/medical assistant 2nd child is an account/ and about to start her own business and my 3rd child went to serve in the United States Army and they all graduated high school and college. They need to stop the mess. 😡

What about mushrooms?

Which mother is dumb enough to do that anyway at least the ones with sense
