[quote=Anonymous]“ It’s easy to believe that disease categories simply report divisions in nature. But political and social factors also affect disease rates, as well as who receives treatment. Autism rates aren’t spiking because more children are developing this condition, but instead because of the deinstitutionalization movement, insurance legislation, and data collection methods. These social factors control which conditions receive more funding for treatment and research, and have helped create a system in which children with developmental disorders often cannot get the support they need without a diagnosis with social influence. They are even powerful enough to fuel an “epidemic.”” https://www.statnews.com/2022/02/10/theres-no-autism-epidemic-but-there-is-an-autism-diagnosis-epidemic/[/quote]
