According to some lay groups, the nation is experiencing an autism epidemic—a rapid escalation in the prevalence of
autism for unknown reasons. However, no sound scientific evidence indicates that the increasing number of diagnosed
cases of autism arises from anything other than purposely broadened diagnostic criteria, coupled with greater public
awareness and intentionally improved case finding.

Read the article "Vaccines Do Not Cause Autism" by Heyworth (2011), and write a two-page summary explaining the
reasons why the public perceives vaccinations to be the cause of the increase in autism.
