BEST STUDY: The SNAP Project, using the best scientists and assessment tools available, attempted to accurately count the number of people with different types of Autism across a section of London children. The methodology used and the sample size (56,000) make it easily the best attempt to-date.

FINDINGS: The prevalence of childhood autism was 38.9 per 10,000 (Kanner's Autism, Classic Autism) and that of other ASD's was 77.2 per 10,000 (HFA, Asperger's, PDD-NOS), making the total prevalence of all ASDs ('the whole spectrum') equal 116.1 per 10,000.
AGGREGATION: HFA and PDD-NOS are now though of broadly as tantamount to Asperger's if not indeed one and the same - the distinction continues to blur further with every significant report from the very leading experts such as Prof Attwood, Simon Baron-Cohen, etc.
THEREFORE: 470,727 would be a fairly reliable estimate of the total population of the UK that has Asperger's Syndrome... in one form or another.
[Hope that helps. I know it is a huge number and even I who have AS have difficulty contemplating such a vast hidden river of suffering - so many people being undiagnosed and not likely to be allowed for and accommodated satisfactorily. Current evidence (some still anecdotal) suggests that up to 50% of school children who are bullied at school daily and at least one third of the UK's real homeless are drawn from that incredible group of differently-wired people... including my own brilliant wonderful brother somewhere in Brompton whom I have often feared for - and not without justification at times.]
World-wide, over 5.8 million people have Down syndrome. (This condition affects people of all ages, races, religions and economic situations.)Approximately 1 in every 1,000 babies has Down syndrome.In the UKIt is estimated that there are about 60,000 people with Down syndrome living in the UK. About 600 babies with Down syndrome are born in the UK each year.
Estimates vary from 1 in 100 up to 1 in 60. The rate a generation ago was less than 1 in 5000. With an estimate of 1 in 100, that works out to there probably being over 200,000 children with autism in the UK at present, with numbers rising.
Down syndrome is the correct term. People who are using "Downs" are speaking incorrectly. Down syndrome used to be called Down's syndrome, but since John Langdon Down did not have nor "invent" this chromosomal abnormality, the correct name is Down syndrome. Countries such as the UK, still use the term Down's syndrome, but shortening it to Down's is not using people first language, therefore, it is incorrect.
