<https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/03/german-man-got-217-covid-shots-over-29-months-heres-how-it-went/>:
A 62-year-old man in Germany decided to get 217 COVID-19
vaccinations over the course of 29 months —for "private reasons."
But, somewhat surprisingly, he doesn't seem to have suffered any
ill effects from the excessive immunization, particularly weaker
immune responses, according to a newly published case study in The
Lancet Infectious Diseases.
The case is just one person, of course, so the findings can't be
extrapolated to the general population. But, they conflict with a
widely held concern among researchers that such overexposure to
vaccination could lead to weaker immune responses. Some experts
have raised this concern in discussions over how frequently people
should get COVID-19 booster doses.

Thanks Laurence. Comments are worth reading as well - one gave this

Some linked anti-vaxx to conservative political supporters, and this

and later in the comments a now very old article pointing out that
anti-vax people are not always rational . . . >https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2021/12/29/2071698/-FOX-News-and-Their-Partisan-Shills-Attack-Rachel-Maddow-for-Being-Right-About-COVID-Vaccines

My question is in relation to "anti-vaxx" is what vaccines are >we/you/they/them talking about. The old, traditional vaccines, or the new >ones which are based on new technology? There is a world of difference. Eaactly my point Gordon - it is a silly use of words and describes nothing.
