While America’s health secretary and other politicians mis-state causes of autism, scientists have been investigating if there might be as-yet-unknown factors that are contributing to the rise in diagnoses https://t.co/iSKFtcOATF ...

We are living in the most brainforward era in human history. Just like technology is advancing exponentially, the same thing is happening with neuros scientists research on brain functioning and nervous system regulation. Yet our systems, education, workplaces, medicine are lagging behind.I'm going to take a step back for a minute. Have you ever noticed how it feels like everyone these days has some kind of diagnosis. ASD, ADHD, LDS, OCD, SPD, pick your acronym.And it's not just a feeling. In my work as a w ...

*chatting on phone with gf*gf: don't get offended but, do you think..maybe...that you're a little bit autistic?lol...You do understand what I do for a living? I literally ...

Do you know Andy Wakefield. You absolutely should. He's a buddy and one-time business partner of Robert F.Kennedy Jr. . This is Wakefield and his friend RFK talking on Instagram in 2020. Back then, Kennedy was an antivaccine activist, not yet running HHS.And Wakefield was a disgraced researcher, the architect of the antivaccine movement's foundational lie that the MMR vaccine causes autism. Wakefield was a British gastroenterenterologist in the9s who published a study in the Lancet claiming he'd found a con ...

RT Aaron Siri (@AaronSiriSG)Shame on every doctor and others who argue we should not study whether infant vaccines cause autism because that would be as silly as studying whether sharks, sandwiches, or leprosy cause autism. Parents of autistic children have not claimed sharks, sandwiches, leprosy, etc., caused their child’s autism. Instead, 40 to 70% of them (depending on the study), for decades, based on their intimate knowledge of their children and lived experience, have pointed to vaccines as a cause of ...

The CDC website now says “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.” https://t.co/GyLiPTc0Nv (Photo: Alex Wroblewski/AFP via Getty Images) https://t.co/4VdMdFuCHj ...

RT Edward L Hamilton (@EdwardLHamilton)Absolutely bonkers story about Somalian immigrant communities in Minnesota over-diagnosing their own kids with autism so that they can funnel billions of Medicaid dollars back to terrorist cells in Somalia. https://t.co/FxVboB9QIF ...

It has been weeks since President Trump instructed pregnant women not to take Tylenol due to a potential link to autism and ADHD diagnosis. That advice ran counter to what major medical associations here in the US have said for decades, which is that Tylenol, acetaminophen use in pregnancy, is safe and effective to reduce fever and pain, which can be dangerous to mom and baby. Now there is a pervasive sense of confusion and frustration among families that we spoke to and doctors say they are fielding more a ...

Live picture of the White House. 7:27 on this Thursday morning. The CDC now has updated its website to say claims vaccines do not cause autism.Well established, actually are not evidence-based. That's according to this new web page that reads, "Studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism. Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities." That's the new claim on the CDC website. There also is a notice that the Department of Health and Human Services is launc ...
