"Well in 1970, the biggest epidemiological study in history was done in Wisconsin. They looked at 900,000 children and they were looking for autism. They knew what it looked like and they were very, very precise about it; and they found an incident rate of 0.7% in other words, less than 1 for every 10,000 children. Today, our most recent numbers are 1 in every 31 kids."
"It's probably actually much worse than that because California, which has the best collection system, is reporting 1 out of every 19 children, American children, has autism. One in every 12.5 boys. So it's gone from less than 1 in 10,000 in 1970 to 1 in 12.5 boys. TRUMP: Think of those numbers. So there has to be something artificially causing this, meaning a drug or something. And I know you're looking very strongly at different things,"
Reported autism prevalence rose from less than 1 in 10,000 children in 1970 to about 1 in 31 nationally and as high as 1 in 19 in California. A non-physician vaccine skeptic amplified a long-debunked theory linking vaccines to autism and pledged to identify a cause by September. The rise in reported cases has prompted assertions that an artificial factor, such as a drug or environmental exposure, may be responsible. The topic has gained traction within parts of the MAGA base amid the Make America Healthy Again movement following COVID-19 vaccine mandates, despite years of studies finding no causal link between vaccines and autism.
