Well I’m no expert on vaccinations or autism, but I AM somewhat of an expert on the Amish. Not exactly by choice, but only because I was born and raised in an Old Order Amish family.
The bottom line is, some do and some don’t, it’s entirely up to the individual families. We all went to a private school which didn’t have any vaccination requirements like public schools do.
We had a cousin who was disfigured by polio, and had a long battle with it, so… our parents took us in for a polio vaccination, and I got one other shot, for a total of 2 vaccinations, instead of the ridiculous 30 or 40 they make you get these days.
That’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it!
