The Myth of the Autism Epidemic

I agree with most of the article, though it seems odd that rather than just plainly explain that the real incidence of autism has likely remained static or fallen and particularly for the more impactful kinds, and that it's just a misinterpretation of statistics, it instead tries to turn the better diagnosis rates into something to worry about itself.

Seems odd for something shared as a "doom-slayer".
