GRRRREAT SCOTS! WHERE ARE THE ADULTS WITH AUTISM?
Here's a mystery to rival "What does a Scotsman wear under his kilt?" and Nessie herself. The Scots can not find an adult population with autism in numbers to refute the concept of the current epidemic among younger people. Read more HERE.
If they can't retroactively diagnose enough eccentric dead historical figures with autism to fill the bill, and when they run out of actual current ASD adults but a sufficient numbers of Ritalin and acid-damaged adults don't step forward claiming to have "Einsteinian autism", or "Van Goghian autism" or whoever's on gift shop mugs these days, maybe Loch Ness is as good a place as any to look for the missing "cohorts". They could be floating around out there on the lost fleet of the Spanish Armada with the ghost of Elvis, Jimmy Hoffa and Big Foot.

"The reality is that these adults just do not exist."
The other reality is that EVERYBODY gets the connection to the vaccines BUT the doctors and their corrupt affiliates.
THEN, in order that they might perpetuate their own distorted realities, they resort to gimmicks like having their self-appointed moronic representatives (such as Chez) roll their narrow visioned eyeballs at folks who actually know better than them and actually DO something to help treat the kids who they have injured. Yes several thousands of kids injured beyond repair, victims of their prehistoric, outdated, primitive, quest to promote the "hellth" of mankind, one they will never recover from. Fie! Fie!

The interesting context of this is that such is the level of concern in government and amongst health officials about the spread of autism, that we have no figures for the United Kingdom as a whole. While Scotland has a somewhat independent political tradition which allows some issues to peep occasionally above ground level, in the UK as a whole we have become politically abject and tend to be ruled over by Scots.
With further regard to Scotland we know that there was a roughly four-fold increase in the ASD school population between 1998 and 2005, which was quite in line with what was happening in the London Borough of Haringey, where I live. In a local audit of special educational need, dated July 1999, we had 109 ASD children of which only 8 were over 11 years-old: it was perfectly clear where things were headed. But while it was always claimed that this was due to better identification it actually happened against the background of government trying to screw the lid down on special eductional need. The rise in autism was, therefore, a huge embarrassment.

Meanwhile, the project of maintaining that autism always existed at the levels now manifested in the school population and young adults is hampering attempts to expand provision, closely paralleling the situation, there can be little doubt, in the US. Everyone delegated with the task of negotiating new provision seems to be repeating this self-defeating mantra:

Clifford Miller's report on the failure of the Scottish government to find adults with an autism rate even approaching that of our children exposes the reality of the disaster. A once rare disorder is overwhelming children at an epidemic rate and it continues to go unrecognized.
The explosion in autism directly coincided with the dramatic increase in the vaccine schedule both in the U.K. and in the U.S. That's undeniable. To pretend it's unrelated is evidence of the extent of the cover-up by officials.
