April 2 is the day for all of us to be aware of autism. World Autism Awareness Day is on April 2.
Over the last 2 decades, autism occurrence had increased incrementally. Just as occurrence of cancer has also increased.
Autism occurs in children of all races, all social economic background, parents of various educational levels. Autism just seem to happen randomly anyhow.
Some hard facts….

2 Autism does not discriminate by geography, class, or ethnicity.
3 Autism occurs in as many as 1 in 150 children.
4 Autism occurs as many as 1 in 94 boys.
5 Boys are four times more likely than girls to have autism.
6 There is no medical detection or cure for autism, but early diagnosis and intervention improve outcomes.
