A man deliberately got 217 Covid shots. Here's what happened
So, in essence, they seem to be saying his experience is anomalous and readers should go by the guidance provided.
Uh huh.
What I note is that while he ostensibly doesn't show any "ill effects," all those supposed 'vaccinations' don't appear to have provided him any "help" in terms of boosting his immune system either. While researchers are attempting to point to the idea that the results mean the shots are well tolerated and his first three doses likely provided him immunity, they also acknowledge that since they don't know anything about his behaviors, they can't make any judgement.
Uh huh.
Of course, given that he received the doses over 2.5 years and it's only been less than half an year since the last documented dose, you have to wonder if any 'side effects' just haven't caught up with him yet. You also have to wonder if he's ever been 'exposed' to the virus.
Here's the Lancet piece which prompted the article... Adaptive immune responses are larger and functionally preserved in a hypervaccinated individual
See? It's safe. Now get the shot(s).
Never mind that we can't show any negative effects, yet; but, we also can't show it did him any good either.
One German man has redefined "man on a mission." A 62-year-old from Magdeburg deliberately got 217 Covid-19 vaccine shots in the span of 29 months, according to a new study, going against national vaccine recommendations. That's an average of one jab every four days.
In the process, he became a walking experiment for what happens to the immune system when it is vaccinated against the same pathogen repeatedly. A correspondence published Monday in the journal Lancet Infectious Diseases outlined his case and concluded that while his "hypervaccination" did not result in any adverse health effects, it also did not significantly improve or worsen his immune response.
The man, who is not named in the correspondence in compliance with German privacy rules, reported receiving 217 Covid shots between June 2021 and November 2023. Of those, 134 were confirmed by a prosecutor and through vaccination center documentation; the remaining 83 were self-reported, according to the study...
The man did not report any vaccine-related side effects and has not had a Covid infection to date, as evidenced by repeated antigen and PCR testing between May 2022 and November 2023. The researchers caution that it's not clear that his Covid status is directly because of his hypervaccination regimen...
The researchers analyzed his blood chemistries, which showed no abnormalities linked to his hypervaccination. They also looked at various markers to evaluate how his adaptive immune system was functioning, according to the study.
The adaptive immune system is the subsection of the immune system that learns to recognize and respond to specific pathogens when you encounter them throughout your life, Miller said. There are two main cell types in the adaptive immune system, T cells and B cells.
In chronic diseases, such as HIV and hepatitis B, immune cells can become fatigued from frequent exposure to the pathogen and lose the ability to combat it effectively, Schober said. Hypervaccination, in theory, could have a similar effect.
However, that's not what the researchers found. Hypervaccination in this case increased the quantity (the number of T cells and B cell products) but did not affect the quality of the adaptive immune system, according to the study...
In total, the man got eight vaccine formulations, including mRNA vaccines from Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna, a vector-based vaccine from Johnson & Johnson and a recombinant-protein vaccine from Sanofi...
While very interesting from a scientific perspective, individual case studies like this must always be taken with a grain of salt, Miller said. Public health recommendations, which are based on very large, randomized control trials, are what people should look to for guidance, she added...

Here's the Lancet piece which prompted the article... Adaptive immune responses are larger and functionally preserved in a hypervaccinated individual
...In summary, our case report shows that SARS-CoV-2 hypervaccination did not lead to adverse events and increased the quantity of spike-specific antibodies and T cells without having a strong positive or negative effect on the intrinsic quality of adaptive immune responses. While we found no signs of SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections in HIM to date, it cannot be clarified whether this is causally related to the hypervaccination regimen. Importantly, we do not endorse hypervaccination as a strategy to enhance adaptive immunity...
