The Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., announced Wednesday that the Trump administration plans to publish a series of studies to help identify “precisely what environmental toxins” are causing autism.
Kennedy is addressing one of the problems he promised to address as part of the greatest mission to make the United States again healthy. He discussed the impressive autism rates sacrificed by the US disease control and prevention centers. “

According to CDC:
Results: Among the children of 8 years in 2022, the prevalence of ASD was 32.2 per 1,000 children (one in 31) in the 16 sites, ranging from 9.7 in Texas (Laredo) to 53.1 in California. The general prevalence estimate observed was similar to the estimates calculated using Bayesian hierarchical and random effects models. ASD was 3.4 times more frequent among boys (49.2) than girls (14.3). In general, ASD’s prevalence was lower among the non -Hispanic white child (white) (27.7) than among the Asian or Pacific (A/Pi) (38.2), American or native Alaska (AI/AN) (37.5), not Hispanic (Hispanics) (33.0) and multi -regular children (31.9). No ASD prevalence association and the median family income of the neighborhood (MHI) were observed in 11 sites; A higher prevalence of ASD was associated with MHI from the lower neighborhood in five sites.
The CDC identified a pattern of rates that rose from previous years.
“In 2009, the California State Legislature accused the UC Davis Mental Institute with … This myth was already becoming widespread, and the myth of epidemic denial was already becoming generalized in the mental media: the California legislature, the Wergure The Warage question,” he said, that a highly discouraged and reverent scientist, neurologist and epidemiologist delivered to A Warage responses.
“The epidemic is real,” Kennedy said, and said there are many other studies that affirm this notion.
“Instead of listening to this denial canard from the epidemic, all you have to do is start reading a little science, because the answer is very clear, and this is catastrophic for our country,” Kennedy continues, cancel -the -the -ar -ar -lold is the willón to a billion dollars per year.

“This is added to already astronomical medical care costs. And there is an individual injury. These are children who, this is a preventable disease. We know that it is an exposure of envernmental. It has to be.
“It can provide vulnerability, but you need an environmental toxin,” he said, concluding that they are determined to reach the bottom of this epidemic.
As a result, in three weeks, Kennedy’s team expects “to announce a series of new studies to precisely identify environmental toxins that are causing it.”
“This has not made the leg before, and we will do it in a complete and integral way, and we will return to … respond to the American people, very fast,” he promised.
