German Man Receives COVID-19 Vaccine 217 Times, Here is His Current Condition
Researchers have examined a man who claims to have received the COVID-19 vaccine 217 times.
Of these vaccinations, 134 have been officially confirmed. Despite the high number of doses, his immune system continues to function normally, according to the results.
As reported by the Hungarian news agency MTI, experts at the Friedrich Alexander University in Erlangen have stated that the level of antibodies against Sars-CoV-2 in the man's body was significantly higher than in those who had only three vaccinations. However, his immune system was not damaged by the multitude of vaccines and worked normally against other pathogens.
Nonetheless, the researchers emphasized that this is a unique case and far-reaching conclusions should not be drawn from these results.
In a related domestic incident, a man from Szombathely accidentally received six doses of the Pfizer vaccine. As a result, he experienced a slight temperature increase to 37 degrees Celsius (98.6 Fahrenheit), his blood pressure rose to 180, he suffered from headaches, and had to spend a night in the hospital. Regarding this scenario, virologist Miklós Rusvai commented that multiple doses of a vaccine could cause severe symptoms but are not dangerous, and the additional vaccines would not lead to a longer-lasting immunity. "The injected vaccine will break down in the individual's body in 3 to 4 days, just as it would with a single dose," Rusvai explained at the time.
