Biggest DSM-IV mistake: 1)Loosening definition of #Autism 2)Not realizing how carelessly label would be used Awful Consequences: 1)Rates "Autism" increased by 40X 2)Anti-Vax panic which hurt Covid response/risks spread other diseases 3)Rise of idiot conspiracy theorists like RFK

Autism: The Truth is (not) Out There wiringthebrain.com/2014/10/autism… - not vaccines or cold mothers or iPads or fluoride or pesticides or the microbiome. It's genetic.
