Well, this is troubling to hear. RFK just announced the findings of a new CDC survey on autism, and the numbers will blow your mind.
Overall the risk for boys of getting an autism diagnosis in this country is now one in 20.
Essentially, as RFK puts it in the full video below, "overall, autism is increasing in prevalence at an alarming rate."
I'll quote RFK again:
This is part of an unrelenting upward trend.
The prevalence two years ago was one in 36. Since the first ADDM report ... which was 1992 births, autism has increased by a factor of 4.8 -- that's 480%, I believe.
The first ADDM survey was 22 years ago when prevalence was one in 150 children.
In all the core states, the trend is consistently upward, and most cases now are severe. So about 25% of the kids who are diagnosed with autism are non-verbal, non-toilet trained, and have other stereotypical features.
Alarming to say the least.
So we have the data, but now it's time to figure out why this is happening and then do something about it.
MAHA!!!
