Help please! is autism a global issue, or is it only an issue in industrialized nations?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Global: With the exception of the continent of africa there is a global incidence of autism that is reported. This varies by rank of country (first work, second and so forth) but the question is wether we are looking for it more closely in the industrialized nations. In the poorer nations other issues tend to dominate.
