CORONAVIRUS This lady (66) is an unprecedented phenomenon: She has already completed her fourth vaccination! How did this happen? – Topky.sk

At the end of September, Bozidarka S. was vaccinated for the fourth time against coronavirus. “At first we thought there was an error.” her grandson tells her.

The pensioner suffers from asthma and diabetes. To protect herself from the covid, she was vaccinated twice in the spring with the Moderna vaccine. Some time later, when she had to go to the hospital due to a collapse in her blood circulation, she was recommended a third vaccination with AstraZeneca.

But that’s not the end of it, because: “The patient has not yet been able to make antibodies due to the underlying disease,” said Karin Fehringer, spokeswoman for the General Hospital in Vienna.

The fourth syringe, again with Modern, should finally pick up the 66-year-old antibodies. The inspection next week should bring certainty. “The case itself is not critical. Over-vaccination is not expected. “ says Austrian vaccination expert Professor Herwig Kollaritsch.

One in a hundred will not make any antibodies

According to one study, one in ten people with chronic inflammatory disease does not produce neutralizing antibodies to covid-19 even after mRNA vaccination. In healthy people, it was only one in 100.

Experts therefore recommend a new vaccination – ideally with another vaccine preparation. The absence of antibodies does not mean that there is no protection.
