This did not happen with an Ohio man who is now recovering after receiving consecutive doses of vaccine.

Today, 91-year-old Victor Smith is recovering after his body collided in response to what appears to be a vaccine overdose.
“I was practically told I wouldn’t get it,” Smith’s daughter Dawn Smith Theodore said.
Theodore said it all started after his father received his first dose of vaccine on Jan. 22.
Then he was extremely tired and fell.

Smith, who is amputated, went to Fort Hamilton Hospital before being transferred to Jamestown Rehab Facility days later.
While at the rehab facility, Smith was scheduled to receive his second shot on Feb. 25 at the Butler County Fairgrounds.
“They transported him to receive the shot. And when he came back, I talked to him,” Theodore said. “It was okay. And at 3:45, I guess a city firefighter came in who said they had a shot for Victor and the nurse said ‘Victor Smith?’ “and he said ‘Yes,’ so they gave him the room number and sent him to room 202, which was where my father was.”

But they were wrong about Victor, according to Theodore.
“My dad said‘ I have two shots, ’” he recalled.
In a joint statement to WLWT, the City of Hamilton and Community First Solutions said in part, “There was an incident in which a resident of the City of Hamilton inadvertently received two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine on the same day. “Both Jamestowne and the city of Hamilton Firefighters have begun investigations into the incident.”
