It happened to my mother; she was brilliant but due to being disabled and assisted living circumstances had to take two shots and a booster. She was already absent minded but I noticed she forgot more, physically deteriorated and mentally came down to a normal intellect. I was able to stop any more boosters but at that point the timer was set; she passed within a year of that booster.
