A patient in Germany received payment for getting vaccinated against Covid-19 more than 200 times.
The 62-year-old man 'deliberately and for personal reasons received 217 vaccinations against SARS-CoV-2 over a period of 29 months', a study found.
Upon discovering his excessive vaccinations, scientists requested to conduct tests on how his body had reacted, which he agreed to.
The findings have been published in the Lancet journal, indicating that he did not experience any noticeable adverse effects.
While having so many vaccinations is not advised, scientists were intrigued to observe the outcome, given that he had already done so.
The public prosecutor of Magdeburg, Germany, where he lives, gathered evidence of him receiving over 100 jabs in a nine-month period, potentially for a criminal fraud case, which was later dropped and reported in local media.
After reading the articles, researchers requested consent from the man, via the prosecutor, for tests, and he agreed
He ‘actively and voluntarily agreed to provide medical information and donate blood and saliva,’ as stated in the resulting study.
The man did not report any side effects, and no abnormalities indicative of hypervaccination were found between November 2019 and October 2023.
Researchers also determined that the man showed no signs of ever having had Covid-19, 'as confirmed by repeatedly negative SARS-CoV-2 antigen tests, PCRs, and nucleocapsid serology'.
They concluded that his numerous jabs ‘did not lead to adverse events’ and indeed increased the amount of relevant antibodies and T cells.
However, they were unable to confirm whether he avoided Covid due to his extensive vaccine routine. They emphasized that ‘importantly, we do not endorse hypervaccination as a strategy to boost adaptive immunity’.
