Society's Child
Vorpommern-Ruegen district authorities said the workers in Stralsund city received five times the recommended dose of the BioNTech-Pfizer vaccine on Sunday. Four went to hospital for observation after developing flu-like symptoms.
"I deeply regret the incident. This individual case is due to individual errors. I hope that all those affected do not experience any serious side-effects," district chief Stefan Kerth said in a statement.
The incident came after some German districts declined to use vaccines received over the weekend on suspicion that cold conditions were interrupted during delivery.
Vorpommern-Ruegen authorities pointed to previous statements by BioNtech saying larger doses were tested in the Phase 1 study without serious consequences. There was no immediate comment from the pharmaceutical companies.

Sounds like classic enhancement to me. Encounter the wild virus and have illness way more serious than had they not been vaccinated.
Comment: In this incident they're claiming that the side effects are due to accidental overdose, but we know that even the standard dose comes with alarming risks. Clearly the authorities are determined to continue with the unnecessary mass vaccination campaigns and so it's likely that many more people will have to suffer before the serious side effects of these experimental vaccines come to light.
