    He got the injection seven or eight times per month for over 2 years. Why would he do that? If he’s such a germaphobe and a health enthusiast, you’d think he’d have some common sense that even if he thinks the vaccine is useful, too much of anything is never good. What is his mental glitch? It’s a good thing he got studied and interesting that it’s been determined to have no ill effects after getting the jab 214 more times than advised by CDC.

      He didn’t do this for health reasons. He solid his vaccination passes to people that didn’t want to get vaccinated themselves. The positive side effect is that we now have data on the effects of the vaccine that wouldn’t have been possible to obtain without unethical human trials.

        He sold his vax credentials to other people? Don’t they have personal identifying information on them? linked to his name and identity? How can you give your own vaccine card to someone else?

          Here in France it was just a qr code in an app, you don’t get a picture of the person when you scan it, so basically sharing a screenshot of the qr code would have been enough to fool most restaurants, bars and such, because nobody bothered to ask for ID.

          The vax passport is just a small yellow booklet and if you lose yours, you just get a new one from the doctor. You just sign your name and that’s it. It would be pretty trivial to swap pages or maybe just write a different name on the cover.

      Maybe trying to find the upper limits of how many times a person can receive the vaccine! Haha

      Yea, if nothing else, breaking the skin has a non-zero chance of getting infected with some other random microbastard. Like, you don’t want covid, but you don’t want necrotizing fasciitis either.

      German news outlets reported that there were certain days, when this person received as many as three vaccinations within the same day. https://archive.ph/pqwVK (in German, original pay-walled)

      common sense

      Yeah, this clearly enters into the realm of a mental disorder. There’s no logical thought happening. It’s a compulsion.

    So… did he seek the vaccinations…or… was that some weird fluke of the healthcare system?

      A 62-year-old man from Germany has, against medical advice, been vaccinated 217 times against Covid, doctors report.

      The shots were bought and given privately within the space of 29 months.

      To me, this would suggest that he got them himself intentionally.

        They “opened an investigation with the allegation of fraud, but no criminal charges were brought.” So, yeah. They at least had some reason to think he was doing this intentionally.

          There was another guy from Eastern Europe who got a lot of Covid shots. While the lockdown you sometimes needed a vaccination certificate to do some things and there were several anti-vax people who did want such certificates without getting vaccinated. So they either had to find someone willing to take their shot (and a doctor that didn’t do real identity checks) or they had to get a counterfeit certificate. There were some cases, where people got dozens of shots and sold their certificates.

    I don’t know if that’s him but somewhere in Germany you got a bratwurst (is that word known in the English world? It’s a sausage) for vacation and, yes, someone got more than one shot
