During Thursday's meeting of President Donald Trump's cabinet, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said the United States will know the cause of what he called an "autism epidemic" by September.
Kennedy said, "The latest rates, the autism rates have gone from 1 in 31 (children) from 1 in 10,000 when I was a kid. At your direction, we've launched a massive testing and research effort that's going to involve hundreds of scientists from around the world. By September, we will know what has caused the autism epidemic and we will be able to eliminate those exposures."
