@cbsnews: Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says his agency will identify the cause of the "autism epidemic" by September of this year. Kennedy, for decades, has been a vaccine skeptic and promoted the debunked claim that they cause autism. "We've launched a massive testing and research effort that's going to involve hundreds of scientists from around the world," Kennedy said at a Cabinet meeting with President Trump on Thursday. "By September, we will know what has caused the autism epidemic, and we will be able to eliminate those exposures." #news #politics #autism #rfkjr #health

It’s so weird people say autism is natural. It’s not. They will find the answers and if you don’t want the answers for your own children then fine. Let the people who do want to know find out.

They convinced us sickness is random so we’d never look at what’s actually making us sick…pesticides, pharma, processed food, radiation. It’s not genetics. It’s engineered. RFK knows this.

Why are people criticizing the research about autism? I want to know to better understand it. I bet the people criticizing this wouldn’t be if it was democrat saying it

Autism is not an epidemic. There is no cure. Instead let us work on inclusion and understand. My son was born with it so are they saying I did this to him?

Wouldn’t the logic be that techniques, technology and an overall understanding of autism is more developed compared to his childhood… who’s to say way more weren’t undiagnosed autistic in the past?

No, there's not anything artificial causing this. It's been being studied for a long time. I have 3 of my 4, on the spectrum. It has to do with awareness, and how it gets dx'ed nowadays vs how it was.

How do these geniuses not realize a widening spectrum, more doctors, better diagnostic criteria and more awareness lead to more diagnoses?

As a father to a severely autistic child, both our genetic test came back negative you can't help but wonder. I do understand technology is alot different now day's and that broadens the scope. But what if it is something in our food or drinking water? I don't expect any clear answers and I'll love my children no matter what but an answer as to why would be appreciated.

There is no “cause”…. It’s proven to be genetic. This is the same guy that said he wanted to send us to wellness camps

I’m glad they are looking into this. Because what if it’s something in our food or something in our shots or medicine that is causing it in children I mean, we just don’t know.

Autism is NOT an epidemic!! It’s a normal neurological variation seen across species. My children aren’t an “epidemic”. The #s are increasing because ASD now includes MULTIPLE disabilities 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

did you know when we started accepting left-handed people the number of left-handed people skyrocketed not because they weren't there before. it's just because they were accounted for now
