  2. Esteemed Genetics;

    Autismics ADHD boom is reasonably due to X-ray diagnostics used by spin Doctors on genitalia
    Easy to evaluate mutations frequency in oöcytes genome because they are quite identical to mother genome
    And so, You can compare the male child X-Chromosome to maternal-X-Chromosome for detecting subtelomeric deletions anomalous number;

    The ionizing Radiodiagnostics on internal genitalia (pre-zygote oöcytes and spermiocytes) cause numerous deletions in subtelomeric most-exposed regions, especially in q-branch of long chromosomes (1-9).
    Doctors accontable for autismics ADHD and others radiodiagnostics-induced diseases must be charged of genocide.
    They must know dictyotene is X-rays-vulnerable
