A gentle reminder that there is zero evidence the the rate of people being Autistic has increased.

@nytimes.com is misreporting the fact that rates of Autism Spectrum Disorder has increased since it was introduced as a diagnosis in 2013 by equating that to the number of Autistic ppl who exist.
Autism rates have increased in recent decades, but the reasons are more complicated than what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has presented. Hear more on today's episode of "The Daily." nyti.ms/480eqtm
