A 62-year-old man claiming to have received more than 200 COVID-19 vaccines is being studied by experts who say they’ve been amazed by their findings thus far.
Analysis of the über-cautious German, published in the journal Lancet Infectious Diseases, found that the vaccines continued to create antigens and provide increased immunity — even after an alleged 217 doses.
Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg and Universitätsklinikum Erlangen, Munich and Vienna approached the unnamed individual after hearing local media reports.
“We contacted him and invited him to undergo various tests in Erlangen. He was very interested in doing so,” said Dr. Kilian Schober from the Institute of Microbiology at Germany’s University Hospital of Erlangen, said in a written statement.
The team found official evidence of 134 Covid-19 vaccines of eight different types over a nine-month period. The shot-happy sexagenarian claims to have been inoculated 217 times over a 29-month span.
It is not known why the man received such a large number of vaccinations.
The public prosecutor in the German city of Magdeburg, where the study subject lived, opened a fraud investigation to investigate the man’s claims, but never filed charges.
