Original Note:
Dan Olmstead was not a researcher. He was a journalist who did a non scientific survey on a single Amish community in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania in 2005. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/the-amish-dont-get-autism/ Actual studies have found that many autistic Amish people do exist. And Amish do get vaccines. https://archive.is/2013.10.14-004118/https://imfar.confex.com/imfar/2010/webprogram/Paper7336.html
