The reason we have had higher rates of autism specifically in the last few years is because of lockdown and not socializing with others. If we had similar statistics from back when the lockdowns from Spanish, we would observe similar higher rates. Just so we're clear, it was 1 in 33 kids around 2019 and now it's 1 in 27. So it went from 1 in 27,000 to 1 in about 33 and now 1 in 27. So you go from 1 in 27,000 all the way down to almost a thousand times increase. (05:05–05:12)
