From anecdotes I have heard, generally not, although there isn’t some specific stance against mRNA / stem cell vaccines specifically.

Why do most (if not all) of them reject COVID-19 vaccination?

I never heard of Noah Hoover Mennonites. But there are millions of people who rejected the covid 19 vaccines and for reasons that have nothing to do with being part of a Mennonite sect.

Your response is clearly off-topic. Could you please refrain from such a behavior?

Of course they are not against "mRNA / stem cell vaccines". They didn't even know that Hitler was dead until a visitor told them in the mid 2010s. They are not "educated" in the way we are and they do not want to.

You better be joking. We don't let people talk to our lady folk like that. Knock it off.

My sense is that a lot of the most conservative groups have generally had low vaccination rates for all vaccines (nothing specific to COVID) and that it had more to do with the general sense that vaccines were a form of insurance of which they disapproved. But that rigid anti-vax beliefs based on social media-spread pseudoscience are not really a part of it in the same way that they are within the anti-vax fringe in the general population.

That is based on chatting about the subject with cousins of mine who work in clinics in Amish areas.
