that’s also counter to the principle of individualized care I conclude with as an overall recommendation

My point is more that the wait time is the problem. I don’t think it’s necessarily true that more assessment gets you better results for all patients — I argue otherwise later on! However you should be making that call for medical reasons, not administrative ones

at no point am I saying that whatever the UK was doing was good — it very clearly was not

there’s not value in clearing cases quicker *after a 3 year wait*. I think you’re zooming in on one sentence and missing the larger argument I’m making

Sorry, what part of the article are you objecting to? I’m not clear

Azeen is going to write a very nuanced and detailed article with opinions from autistic people and also these random organizations she found with reasonable concerns that absolutely don’t want to eliminate autistic people
