The study is a lot more than just “he said a thing and this also happened”.

There was a definable and clear impact to people of color, specifically following his presidency, the policies enacted, etc.

I’d recommend reading the study itself, which can be found here:

The study itself highlights that this is a correlation, not evidence of direct causation. Still, evidence of a correlation with worsened outcomes for newborns is concerning in itself.

Of course it’s a correlation.

It’s also way more than “he said a thing, and this other thing also happened” as the person I replied to suggested.
