      Hi, very well thank you.

      If you mean autism, then no. Autism is not contagious and you cannot catch it from anyone else.

      Whether or not you have autism seems to be partially based on your genes and also on other “environmental” factors during pregnancy and when you are very young. Most people with autism seem to show symptoms at around 3 years old, it is very unusual (maybe impossible, I’m not sure) to get it later in life.

      Hello there, I don’t know what atiizam is, can you clarify this please? Do you mean autism? If so, No, autism cannot be passed to other people, they won’t get the symptoms.
