Study: Kids born during COVID-19 pandemic don't have higher autism risk
Kids born during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic appear to have no higher risk of autism, even if they were exposed to COVID in the womb, a new study finds.
I don't see why these 2 would be related, but isn't it early to be concluding this if these kids are only like 3 years old?
Likely it was a study because there are too many stupid people that believe that vaccines cause autism. Society as a whole has lost the ability to critical think.
It pains me that we actually needs to do a study on this.
Negative results are still results!
That's a pity, we would benefit from more scientists and engineers.
Rather hurtful stereotype.
“Risk”. Imagine thinking being autistic is a bad thing.
People self diagnosing as autistic on the Internet may be all fun and games, but autistic people can have a massively hard time and be incredibly hard to be around. Coping with an autistic child can just break a family.
The archetype of autistic as "extremely smart but socially awkward" has been crazy to see, and I think it diminishes the plight of people that are struggling. People self diagnosing and using "neurotypical" as an insult has been such a bad turn.
They should have said "rates".
