There’s no evidence of any more deaths among the Amish than in places that shut down tight. Some claim there were fewer here,” Attkisson maintained. “That’s without masking, staying at home” or taking the coronavirus vaccine.

Lapp highlighted that the absence of a prolonged shutdown meant that the Amish “made more money in the last year than we ever did” as the rest of the country experienced economic hardships because of lockdowns. He described 2020 as “our best year ever.”

You're quoting a reporter of unknown bias, I quoted an academic study based on real data. 'Nuff said.

That doesn't surprise me,whatever the source. Florida locked down and then reopened fast. The hospitalization and death rates were rather similar to other places. I think all the lockdowns and preventive measures, other than vaccines, were pure theater. I think government either wanted control or had to appear to be in control of the uncontrollable.

Only because the data was manipulated and falsified.

"In a complaint filed in July 2020, Jones, who was tasked with managing Florida’s Covid-19 data dashboard, alleged she was fired after she refused to follow orders to manipulate data on the dashboard to support lifting coronavirus restrictions to reopen the state when it was actually unsafe to do so."

And that gem of a surgeon general they've got down there, continues to dish out false information about the latest Covid vaccines.

The authors of the study you quoted "emphasized that these excess deaths may or may not be directly related to COVID-19". They culled Amish newspaper obituaries lacking the cause of death rather than accessing official death certificates. The study was funded by a $258,719 award and additional grants. $260k to read newspapers?

Yea cause all that money they got to falsify covid deaths and push a vaxx they said stopped transmission...those government groups that took money were so accurate. Because pushing a vaxx on kids that don't need it made tons of sense. The only false info was the one people didn't want to hear.

That's not wishful thinking. I've written papers on particle filtration. I'm literally one of the folks who did testing on masks during the initial days of the pandemic to determine effectiveness, and particle size capabilities. I've seen the raw data firsthand because I collected it in collaboration with certain folks in the medical field.
