Original Note:
20 years ago (2005) the prevalence of autism was 1 in 125 children. Not 1 in 20,000. https://www.cdc.gov/autism/data-research/index.html Autism diagnostic criteria has repeatedly been broadened over the years. It was originally incorrectly assumed to be connected to schizophrenia. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8531066/
