Anca Dumitrescu condemned the use of the term 'autistic' as an insult by politicians, stating that it stigmatizes people with autism and contributes to discrimination. She emphasized that autism is not an illness and cannot be cured with medication, but represents a different developmental condition. Dumitrescu explained that the myths related to vaccines and parental behavior are unfounded, and education and raising societal awareness are essential to combat prejudice.
