Man vaccinated 217 times against COVID shows no side effects

Researchers studied the man and determined he had more COVID antibodies but experienced no side effects from being hypervaccinated.
Researchers studied a man who reported receiving 217 COVID-19 vaccines, and found he did not have any side effects and had a fully functioning immune system.
The University of Erlangen-Nuremberg recently published its findings in the journal Lancet Infectious Diseases.
Of the 217 vaccines the German man claimed to have received, researchers were able to confirm that 134 of the shots were administered.
“We learned about his case via newspaper articles,” said Dr. Kilian Schober from the university's Institute of Microbiology. “We then contacted him and invited him to undergo various tests in Erlangen. He was very interested in doing so.”
Researchers said blood tests showed that the man had more antibodies against COVID-19 than someone who would have gotten three doses of the shot. Researchers also said the antibodies were similarly effective as those who have gotten a normal amount of COVID-19 vaccines.
