A 62-year-old man from Germany has, against medical advice, been vaccinated 217 times against Covid, doctors report.
The bizarre case is documented in The Lancet Infectious Diseases journal.
The shots were bought and given privately within the space of 29 months.
The man appears to have suffered no ill effects, researchers from the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg say.

There's official confirmation for 134... The rest he's taken privately. Scientists put him through several tests.
The tests showed that he has large numbers of T-effector cells against SARS-CoV-2. These act as the body’s own soldiers that fight against the virus. The test person even had more of these compared to the control group of people who have received three vaccinations. The researchers
did not perceive any fatigue in these effector cells, they were similarly effective as those in the control group who had received the normal number of vaccinations.
Then the memory T cells were examined and they found no difference.
Then they tested his immune system’s effectiveness against other pathogens. It was found that the hypervaccination has not damaged the immune system as such.
Lancet report summarises...
"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."
PS: One might recall that when the vaccines first arrived several older patients were injected with 5 shots straight away by mistake. This happened across several countries because the vaccine came with 5 doses. There were no adverse reports with these either.
