Summary:
A 62-year-old man in Germany got a whopping 217 COVID-19 vaccines over nearly 3 years. Surprisingly, he reported no side effects and seemed healthy. Researchers studied his case to see if such extreme vaccination would weaken his immune system, as some have theorized.
The man’s immune response was indeed different, with higher antibody levels and specific immune cells. However, it functioned similarly to people with standard vaccination doses. He also hadn’t contracted COVID-19 (though this might be due to other factors).
While this is just one case, it suggests over-vaccination might not be detrimental. However, researchers strongly advise against this as a strategy to boost immunity.
Yeah, I don’t think totally fine would be an apt description of someone who willing shoved 217 COVID shots into himself.
He probably didn’t shove them
I read somewhere that he was given some food with the vax – he did them for the food.
What kinda food are we talking here
Yeah the actions of one probably mentally ill person is nothing more than a curio.
Someone using a vaccine 217 times is interesting from a science curiosity point of view but useless when it comes to safety or efficacy. All it tells us is that repeatedly using the vaccine in someone who never had a problem with it didn’t cause problems. 1 person taking the vaccine 217 times is useless - 217 people taking the vaccine 1 time tells us much more.
They found out that the biggest anti spike protein boost was at the 214th shot. So maybe all these weren’t that useless…
It’s a similar data point to those people who accidentally got a single 10x or 100x dose. We know from those people that very large doses don’t seem to have any major negative effects, we now also know that a long term “continuous” dose doesn’t have much of a negative effect.
