I don't know how many people have seizure disorders that are on the autism spectrum. I have when I was experienced it as a small child. There is truly no knowing how many people nowadays in the autism spectrum have seizure disorders.
Autism is not mental or physical per say, nor is it always a disability. Autism is a neurological difference - some people with autism do consider themselves disabled because of the way autism effects them, but many autistic people live just like neurotypical people so do not consider their autism to be a disability at all.
Of course they can. Children with Autism can reach whatever career they choose. Temple Grandin is a very famous person with Autism, and she has written many great books about Autism.
No one 'gets' autism, it's not a disease someone can catch - autism is a neurological difference, Autistic people are born Autistic. Currently rates of diagnosis are around 1 in 55, but we have no way of knowing for sure how many people may be Autistic but not diagnosed.

It would not be ethical or legal to do anything TO people who have autism.
Yes people with autism do repeat them self's.
The CDC have put Autism diagnosis at 1 in 68 within the US. We don't know how many people are Autistic because not that many people are diagnosed, many may not even know they're Autistic.
In 2015, the Australia Health Department stated that it does not collect data on the prevalence of autism.Autism appears to be on the rise. In 2015, autism made up 31% of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants. Asperger's Syndrome is part of the autism spectrum. (This does not mean that 31% of the entire Australian population have Asperger's Syndrome or other forms of Autism.)
