Autism is increasing at an alarming rate in Wisconsin, as it is in the rest of the country. Today an estimated one out of 150 children nationally receive the diagnosis, up from 1 in 1,000 a couple of decades ago. That is more than have Down syndrome, juvenile diabetes and cancer combined, according to Kathryn Luttkus, grants manager of Easter Seals of Southeastern Wisconsin. The disease has emerged as such an urgent health issue that Easter Seals has replaced polio, its famous poster cause, with autism.
In the 2004-05 school year, 4,361 (0.44 percent) of Wisconsin’s students received special education services for autism — double the number in 2000. Experts debate whether the increase is a genuine epidemic, or the result of a broader and better system for diagnoses. Wisconsin is one of 11 states participating in a study by the Centers for Disease Control that might answer that question. The study could resolve the mystery over whether autism is caused by genetics, the environment, or both.
‘Experts debate whether the increase is a genuine epidemic, or the result of a broader and better system for diagnoses.’ I personally believe that the increase is down to way too many, unnecessary vaccines being administered into tiny bodies that just don’t need them. I cant believe the ‘experts’ have to debate on why there is an increase. Of course, there may be genuine cases of autism that are not linked to vaccines, but there have been so many studies, essays, articles etc that indicate that there is a link to vaccines. But then, big pharma and those who profit through damaging our children will always deny it saying the risks of vaccines far outweigh the risks of catching a disease. Bullshit. Also, there are countless people in the medical field who say that vaccines are not necessary and can cause long lasting physical and mental problems. Obviously their work is shunted by those wishing to profit in the lives of others. How inhumane. below are just a few links to point you in the righ direction, just how deep does the rabbit hole go…
