> A wish to survive future infections? Natural immunity is more effective than vaccine immunity.

No, that's not true at all. You got it exactly backwards.

I wonder why you cherry-pick obscure sources from other countries while your own CDC quite clearly refutes your claims.

Moreover, you do not need to pick between either getting infected or taking the vaccine, so your whole argument makes no sense from the start.

You're misinterpreting the study; it compares previously infected with previously infected AND vaccinated.

It doesn't say anything about previously infected VS vaccinated but not infected (and there are studies that claim "natural" immunity is more effective; hell even original J&J trial data suggests that!)

That study gets misleadingly cited so many times.

Luckily for the CDC they just recently happened to get data proving that naive vaccinees are 5x better protected than recovered unvaccinated against infection. The study is horrible, with so many issues and conflict of interests... but who cares, the CDC published it, it even has a shiny banner for news media to share around!
