COVID-19 vaccination is becoming a compulsion in variouscountries of the world. Where taking two doses of the vaccine is widely advisedby almost all the companies involved in the manufacturing of COVID-19 vaccines,a man from New Zealand took more than the required jabs of the vaccine.
A very shocking incident took place recently in NewZealand where a man took 10 shots of the COVID vaccine in just 10 hours. Thereason behind the man getting 10 doses is still not known. After theauthorities took note of the incident, the Health Ministry of New Zealandordered a detailed investigation of the case.
According to some sources, the person visited numerousvaccination centers in 24 hours and was paid for each shot of the vaccine.
According to experts, taking more than the required dosesof a vaccine can be lethal and pose serious threats to life.
“The ministry has been informed and we are taking thismatter very seriously. This is a very worrying situation and we are in contactwith many agencies.” said the Ministry of Health's COVID-19 Vaccine andImmunization Program in New Zealand's Group Manager.
In the view of Professor Nikki Turner from the Universityof Auckland, even though there is no availability of data concerning theoverdose of the COVID vaccine, that many doses of a vaccine can never be goodfor a human body.
She further added, "It's definitely not right. We donot have any evidence that what kind of side effects a person will face aftertaking an overdose of this vaccine. This is not a safe practice, and has putthe person at risk.”
Further, authorities of New Zealand advised the residentsto see a doctor immediately in case they have taken an overdose of the vaccine.
