NOTE: Please also see my post today at AGE OF AUTISM -- "Top Researcher: Spread Shots Out 'As Much As Possible' With Mitochondrial Disorders" A very interesting article was published today by Elizabeth Gorman on MinnPost.com that should be researched further: It might shine new light on genetic, and possibly environmental factors in autism.
The article reports that an unusually large proportion of Somali-speaking children in Minnesota have autism, something that has also been noted in Sweden, where Somali immigrants call autism "the Swedish Disease," because they did not see it back in East Africa.
