Myth 6: Autism equates to genius
Fact: Wouldn’t that be nice! Autistic people are just like everyone else in the intelligence. A few will show extraordinary talent, which is known as ‘savant skill’.

Myth 5: Autism can be cured
Fact: There is no cure for autism, just as there is no single known cause. People are born with autism and the condition remains for life. But with the right care, they can live relatively normal lives.

Happy World Autism Awareness Month. Autism is the fastest-growing developmental disability in the world, with an increasing rate of 10-17% each year. Currently, 1 in 36 children lives with autism. So more than ever, it is critical that we all become a part of this awareness. 💙

@BadiBuddy_Ke @ytherachege Special schools are havens for children living with disabilities to gain skills to be independent and productive members of societies like this girl barber. Let's support such institutions in our counties.
