On April 10, the US Secretary of Health caused a stir in the scientific community when it said that a research conducted by US Health Services would allow the causes of Autism to be identified “by September”, answering the question that scientists have not been able to.

However, yesterday, a senior US Health Service official announced that the US will not be able to reveal the causes of autism in September, correcting Robert Kennedy Junior’s statements.

As the head of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Organization responsible for medical research, Jay Batatsaria, explained, the September deadline concerns the launch of a new research initiative rather than the publication of results.

The first preliminary results of this initiative could become known “within a year”, he added. “We’ll see,” Batatsari explained.

Trump – Kennedy Junior theory for Autism

Kennedy has long supported scientific theory that autism is linked to the measles vaccine.

Trump called for February the recommendation of the committee “to become America again healthy”, in which Kennedy and other ministers participate and is responsible for examining a number of issues, from autism and asthma rates in children to the amount of drugs prescribed for ADHD and other disorders.

“It should be something artificial out there that is causing this,” Trump said during the same cabinet, while also referring to possible reasons: “We may have to stop taking something or eat something or maybe it is a vaccine.”

In fact, addressing Kennedy, he said: “There will be no greater press conference than you will do when you find this answer.”

‘Not’ Epidemic ” – Unscone Development for Decades The Causes of Development Disorder

Autism diagnoses in the US have increased significantly since 2000, increasing public concern. In 2022 in the US, autism rate in children aged 8 years reached 2.77% (1 in 36), compared to 2.27% in 2018 and 0.66% in 2020, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Although no details of Trump’s plan to discover the causes have been made, Christie Roth, a member of the Autism Society of America, wondered if it would be possible to answer the issue of autism until September.

Describing an epidemic of rising autism rates “is extremely irresponsible and deeply alarming,” Roth commented, adding that it “encourages fear and paranoia” and stigmatizing the community of autism.

“Autism is a lifelong developmental disorder that affects people in many different ways,” he said.

Scientists have been looking for genetic and environmental factors for decades that may contribute to autism, but in most cases the causes remain unclear.

They also explain that the increase in autism rate in the US is explained by the expansion of the term to include more behaviors, as well as the highest diagnosis rates and the highest public opinion on the subject.

New, large research, the results of which were announced this week, found evidence that associates pregnancy diabetes with an increased risk of brain disorders and nervous system, including autism.
