    The man’s identity hasn’t been revealed, and in the paper he’s referred to only as “HIM” (seemingly an acronym, though what it stands for is not specified).

    Is this a Powerpuff Girls reference?

    Ah, the 217 Covid shot guy. Obviously this person has some issues, to put it lightly. But also they’re lucky the shot doesn’t affect them like it did me. I was out of commission for a few days following the 2nd and 3rd ones I took, with a 3-4 degree (F) elevated temperature and general malaise. People think I’m speaking from an anti-vaxx viewpoint when I say this but I felt really weird after the 3rd one especially, and didn’t really feel normal for weeks. I’m not sure I’ve ever returned to feeling normal. So, I don’t think I’d be as unaffected as this dude if I took it 217 times.

      Side effects definitely are not unheard of. Most likely you would have had a much worse reaction to COVID without the vaccines.

        Yeah, I’m aware of that and it’s what I said at the time. Anyway, my point was more about the weirdo who took it 200 times. I don’t think I would survive that.

          It makes sense, I don’t think the human COVID shot has been approved for horses

          I figured you were aware but just wanted to point that out for others. My question on this is how the hell was he able to take it over 200 times? Dies Germany not do any tracking at all?

            Definitely a good question. Maybe they have informal vaccination clinics that don’t track identity?

      Me neither. Each time, my lymph nodes swelled up for a week. If I’d done this it would not have been worth the money.

      Still, far better than actually getting covid.
