Given that the term autism didn’t exist before 1911 it probably wasn’t being diagnosed a whole lot before then. But I would guess it went up as understanding and awareness of it grew, but there were definitely descriptions of people who met the criteria for it long before then.

I was wondering about that as I was furiously typing out my scathing sarcastic bullshit with a shit eating grin on my face.

Even if there was, I’m much happier being autistic than I would be dead.

I’d much prefer my children alive and autistic than dead (or debilitatingly disabled) too.

There’s something weird about people who seem to think the other way around.

Seeing the raw numbers is impactful and I would also like to see these figures as percentages of the whole since they’re comparing different times with different populations.

I was gonna say. The US population was 207M when I was born. It’s now 335M. I would expect percentages to be far more telling.

Measles and mumps would be lower if more people accepted the vaccine.
