America’s autism hotspots revealed as new data lays bare ‘rampant epidemic’
Government officials have revealed which states are autism hotspots as the US faces a ‘relentless epidemic’ of cases.
A CDC report released earlier this week revealed rates of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have increased to one in 31 children in the US, a staggering increase from one in 150 just two decades ago.
Experts also suggested the true rate nationwide could be even higher due to patchy screening and limited access in rural areas.
Health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr abruptly called a press conference Wednesday claiming Americans ‘have to recognize we are doing this to our children and we need to put an end to it.’
He also announced a series of studies looking into ‘environmental toxins’ he believes could be fueling the surge and promised ‘there will be an answer for the American people’ by September.
The CDC’s new report shows while one in 31 American children are autistic, the condition is even more prevalent in certain states.
In California, for example, one in 19 eight-year-olds in 2022 were diagnosed as autistic, adding up to just over 800. The researchers also suggested the true nationwide rate is closer to California’s than to one in 31.
Pennsylvania followed closely behind with one in 21 or 335 children, and Wisconsin recorded a rate of 1 in 26.
And eight states reported rates higher than or equal to the national average for 2022, the latest data available.
