My daughter with autism two weeks ago was in the hospital for IV fluids due to COVID 19. Thankfully, she is fine now. New research shows how individuals with autism already have more health conditions, including heart problems and others. The psychiatric medications or having COVID 19 further increase these risks. I'm glad my daughter is recovering well, this may have been prevented if people were wearing masks covering both their noses and mouth.
