What did Donald Trump claim about health care on 10 Aug 2026?
Donald Trump, President of the United States ·
When you hear that number, where it was 1 in 10,000 20 years ago, and now it's 1 in 30, or in California 1 in 18, that something—something happened in the meantime.
Not 1 in 10,000. Twenty years earlier, in 2006, the CDC's count was about 1 in 110, and in 2000 and 2002 it was 1 in 150.
CDC's Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network puts identified autism prevalence among 8-year-olds at about 1 in 110 for surveillance year 2006, twenty years earlier, and 1 in 150 for 2000 and 2002, against 1 in 31 for 2022 (CDC).
