Investigating Pink Disease Down Under Highlights its Many Similarities to Autism
Pink Disease ravaged children in Europe, North America and Australia in the first half of the
20th Century. Many did not survive. The name comes from the fact that many children developed raw, peeling hands and feet. Other symptoms included social withdrawal, lack of eye contact, loss of language, repetitive and self-injurious behaviors, body-rocking, toe-walking, sensitivity to light, noise and touch, low muscle tone, immune disorders and respiratory problems.
