Autism cases are on the rise again, largely due to wider screening and better diagnosis, federal health officials said Thursday. The rate of U.S. cases of autism and related disorders rose to about 1 in 88 children. The previous estimate was 1 in 110.More than 1 in 100.
And narcolepsy is estimated at 1 in 2000.
Do you really believe there are twenty times more people with autism than narcolepsy?
I don't. (according to my mechanism, it's not even mathematically possible)
This is a failure of the diagnostic criteria. They are way too restrictive. They have sacrificed recall for precision. Diagnostic Reliability.
Sleep specialists don't recognize any of the mild or preliminary symptoms of narcolepsy. They wait until the pathology has accumulated to the point it's catastrophic. (And then they give us drugs that make it worse.)
They're fundamentally incompetent.
