The increase in autistic kids has exploded, ask any teacher. There is a spectrum which makes it tricky but the two ends are more than obvious, both hard to deal with. Nobody really understands why and has little to do with Type A or B.

It may be environmental triggers associated with other factors like vaccination, we can't really be sure. But the low hanging fruit may be unnecessary vaccinations where the risk/reward can be and should be determined. I had thought that had been done, but apparently not. Asleep at the switch. Prudent to get that work done.

We may be fortunate in that most autistics are not particularly interesting in reproduction. OTOH, if the growth rate isn't quelled we face a looming future disaster. Who will care for all those afflicted? Visit a group home and worry.

I ponder the worldwide spread and the communities affected. Studies?
