Where is the much-needed double-blind study with an unvaccinated controlled group on childhood vaccines, RFK?
We even already have an unvaccinated control group in the Amish, but for some reason there's little interest in studying them and their low autism rates.
If the Amish kids had increased morbidity and mortality in significant numbers, we wouldn't hear the end of it as an argument for vaccination.
Instead it's silence or supression of the fact their rates of neurological disorders ( including autism ) is a small fraction of the general population's rate of neurological disorders.
Even just not living within city limits probably helps. I'm convinced that homeless people are made significantly more crazy just by having to live exposed directly to urban environments. The human psyche was not made to have prolonged contact with the Walmart parking lot.
The Amish make for a terrible control group because there are dozens of possible factors that can be at play for their low rates.
One of the biggest causes of the 'tism is having your first kid over the age of 35, which is something the Amish don't do almost at all, and that's completely independent of the vaxxes.
Same with autism only notably manifesting for a lot of people due to overstimulation issues. Something the quiet, simple life of an Amish person will have very little problem with. So even if it did exist, it could skirt by mostly as "Jedidiah is a little odd" instead of a named disorder.
I'm not saying the vaxxes might not be a cause as well, but we would learn nothing about anything you are aiming for by comparing our existence to theirs other than massive broad strokes generalizations.

Sometimes I wonder how much of that is down to them living a more spiritually wholesome life than most urbanites.
