RFK attributes rise in autism to environmental factors

While autistic experts claim that the rise in cases stems from increased awareness and improving diagnostic tests, the Minister of Health and Humanitarian Services (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Junior closed this idea on Wednesday, and instead, height ratios to cases to environmental factors.

Kennedy told reporters on Wednesday that those who have deducted that environmental exposure is a factor in the high cases of autism participating in the “denial of the epidemic”.

Kennedy appeared at the HHS headquarters in Washington, DC, to discuss the latest results on autism listed in a new survey of centers to control and prevent diseases (CDC) on Tuesday.

Kennedy said: “This comes from an environmental poison, and someone has achieved a profit by placing that environmental poison in the air, our water, our medicines, and our food,” Kennedy said. “It is in their interest to say” Oh, to normalize it, to say all this is normal, it has always been here. “This is not good for our country.”

However, Kennedy has found the new CDC survey that the spread of autism rises and said that the increase “may be due to the differences in the availability of services for early discovery, evaluation and diagnostic practices.”

Specifically, the poll found that one out of every 31 years was diagnosed with autism in 2022-height from one in 36 years 2000.

In addition, the survey determined that autism rates were more common for boys than girls. While one in every 20 boy is diagnosed with autism, these numbers decrease to one in 70 for girls.

While Kennedy admitted on Wednesday that there may be some genetic weaknesses that could contribute to increasing the chances of autism diagnosis, autism rates rose from 1989 and that some new environmental toxins must be presented at that time.

“Why don’t we see it for the elderly? Why is this only happening in young people?” Kennedy said. Have you ever seen anyone of our age-71 years old-with full autism?

As a result, Kennedy said that HHS studies will examine toxins, including mold, insecticides, air, water and various medicines, as well as age and obesity rates for parents, among other things.

“We will look at all potential perpetrators,” Kennedy said.

HHS did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital regarding the clear contradiction between Kennedy’s notes and surveying the Disease Control Center.

Kennedy indicated on Thursday at the White House cabinet meeting that the administration will start a huge research initiative to understand the cause of autism by September.

The autistic advocacy network, a non -profit organization dedicated to the legal and legal call on behalf of those who suffer from autism, had pushed against Kennedy’s statements at the cabinet meeting and claimed that Kennedy refused to recognize studies that indicate genes as an essential cause of autism.

The network said in a statement on Thursday: “There is no evidence that autism has already become more common (instead, we, as a society, are improving in determining this, and diagnostic criteria have been expanded appropriately).” “Even if it is related to autism and other disabled people belong to our society. To demand otherwise, and speaking as if our existence is a type of disaster that must be eliminated, it is a form of birth control.”
