Adaptive immune responses larger and functionally preserved in a hypervaccinated

  The tldr is basically: * Guy vaccinated himself very, very often for reasons unknown. * We observed interesting things [implied: that we probably would never have observed otherwise because nobody would ever set up a study for this specifically] like mildly elevated levels of spike-specific B cells * It doesn't look like it made him any more or less protected. * The guy never caught covid as best as anyone can tell, but other factors (was he a recluse?) can't be ruled out. * We're not endorsing this as a strategy, we're just writing up interesting stuff since the opportunity arose. The news media is also widely reporting this. https://www.google.com/search?q=217&tbm=nws https://www.google.com/search?q=217&tbm=nws

    > was he a recluse? I dunno, he'd have to get out pretty often to get vaccinated this many times, wouldn't he?

He claimed he had not suffered any adverse effects.”
