     @arstechnica I recall earlier in the pandemic there was a man who had gotten vaccinated a ton, for fraud purposes. He'd get people legitimate proof of vaccination cards by filling out the forms using their names and actually getting vaccinated.

     @arstechnica @cstross note this wasn’t a medical study, this asshole just got 217 doses, which could have been made available to people in actual need.

     Fuck him and the horse he rode in on.

     @arstechnica For someone who didn't read it but make a premature conclusion out of the first impression (who is also unlikely to read this comment, unfortunately), the unexpected thing is that the immune system wasn't get as much tired of multiple vaccinations as expected, not that there was no side-effects (which was not quite the researchers' main concern).
