No, autism is a birth defect.
Autism and schizophrenia are not connected at all. In fact, it has been scientifically demonstrated that if you have an allele for schizophrenia you are less likely to have autism.
No. Crooked pinkies can be inherited, so both autism and crooked pinkies could occur in several members of a family, but they are not connected.
No. They are both neurological disorders, however autism is characterized by impaired social interaction and communication. Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is characterized by inattention, lethargy, disorganization, procrastination, forgetfulness, and easy distractedness.
No autism is not related to eczema and asthma. Eczema and asthma are related to each other, but they are not connected to autism in any way. However, autism does appear to be more common in families with a history of atopy; that is, eczema, asthma and other allergies. There is significant evidence to suggest that autism is possibly an inflammatory genetic condition, the development of which is enhanced (or improved) by environmental factors such as diet, and exposure to various environmental toxins and irritants, and various poisons. Autism has a strong genetic component - 90% of paired identical twins will both have autism. However, 10% won't, indicating that environmental factors are clearly at play.

1) religious objections (a belief that God or scripture prohibits vaccinations); 2) fear that such injections cause long-term problems such as retardation or autism. But these fears are unfounded.

However, if you didn't find out that you have autism until you are an adult, then your autism must be the mild kind on the entire autism spectrum.
Biologial. Autism is neurodevelopmental. There are hereditary and genetic ties to autism.
No, Jedward do not have autism.
No, Macy Gray does not have autism, although she does shows for autism causes.
Autism can be inherited from parents with genes for autism. Autism can also be the result of the spontaneous mutation of a gene. It is suspected that a person with the genes for autism might need an environmental factor (in the womb or shortly after birth) to trigger the development of autism.
