yes absolutely. my mom had two separate infections where they caused things like fever & fluid in her lungs cutting off oxygen. im 99% sure that that contributed to the development of my autism & adhd (ofc along with hereditary & genetic factors since it heavily runs in my family too). but my mom was ofc also on medication. her physical body going through that would’ve impacted my brain more than the meds that literally helped her heal from those ailments & helped me like not die AGSJWHEKR
A fever could potentially be fatal to a fetus and cause risk of other birth defects, so yes. But these are the same people that think that the potential risk of their kid getting autism from vaccines (which doesn’t even exist) is somehow worse than them contracting a preventable fatal disease
