A major study into the impact of the pandemic on Amish communities has found that Covid death rates among the traditionalist groups of citizens are 90 times lower than for the rest of America.

The main difference, the study revealed, is that Amish communities completely ignored the guidelines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Amish families did not get vaccinated or wear masks, nor did they engage in lockdowns, social distancing, or any other type of restrictions.

But the separated communities didn’t avoid catching the virus, however, as roughly 90% of the Amish have been infected with Covid.

The study was conducted by the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation (VSRF) and specifically focused on Amish people in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

You mean there WASN'T mass death from the flu? Shocking.

Sure correlation doesn’t equal causation yadda yadda, but anyone who stuck that science juice in their arm willingly is a fricktard

Just a hunch, but the Amish are probably a lot healthier than the average American!

4% of Amish are obese…compared to 36% of general population. Being a fat body increased rona death odds dramatically.

He continued by suggesting the reason is that Amish families don’t vaccinate their children.


Yea, I am not buying this, sorry. Vaccinate your children (not talking about COVID "vaccine").

The guy who made up this utter bs is Steven Kirsch, an avid anti-vaxxer. See below how he got to the "90 times lower" number. Would be hilarious if not sad.
quote:

In his testimony, Kirsch claimed that he’d spoken with Amish people in Lancaster County and learned that only five community members died of the coronavirus. That, he said, led him to conclude that the Amish “died at a rate 90 times lower than the infection fatality rate of the United States of America.”

Kirsch goes on to claim, without citing evidence, that Amish children also don’t suffer from cancer, diabetes, autism, autoimmune disease and a range of other ailments.


Oh...and he also attempted to mine for Amish Covid deaths by offering money on Twitter. Amish people love Twitter. /sarcasm

quote:

“It was an informal effort on my behalf using multiple methods to try and uncover what the health effects are for the Amish who are unvaccinated,” he said in a phone interview, noting that his efforts included offering a $2,500 reward for information about Amish COVID deaths on Twitter.

Amazing what happens when you live an active lifestyle rather than a sedentary one

They’re also more isolated than the average American.

According to the info above, the Amish were infected with Covid, they didn't take the shot and their mortality rate was lower.

Do we no longer "follow the science"?

As of 16:12, you have 5 downvotes and that is just absolutely insane.

fricking Masked Covidian Cultists still can't handle the truth that has been punching them in the face for a couple years now.

You were WRONG, you big-brother-trusting, unquestioning conformists. Just admit it and move on. Conservative America didn't all die of the China virus and I know that disappoints you, but it's gonna take a hell of a lot more than a cold to wipe us out.

It has nothing to do with being unvaxed. The covid virus kills drug abusers, fat folks with hypertension, steroid users, and the unfit. There are no Amish people who fit those descriptions.

Went to the local Farmer's Market this morning. I get all my meat from the Amish counter there. It's 90 times better than grocery store cuts.
