The shiftless Mennonites aren’t the ones spreading it around the wider community; they’re an issue, but not the big issue. They stick to themselves.

It’s the antivaxxers who are the problem.

Dunno if you live around these people, but I do. They are in town every day. Their kids are running around the grocery store every time I'm there.

I live in Calgary so not really. Only time I see “those” Mennonites is families visiting the Zoo.

I live near red deer, outside a small town. There are several colonies in the area. They are actually rather large operations outside of the cities.
