Consider the magnitude of the immune response. In someone with pre-existing immunity the virus may replicate relatively little before being killed. Compare this to getting the vaccine, where your body will be flooded with spike protein whether you have previous immunity or not.

Exactly. And the most plausible explanation for the large variation in number of VAERS reports by lot number is that poor quality control meant some lots were "hot" and led to excessive spike protein production.

I got severe side effects from Pfizer vaccine and so did my spouse. We still didn't fully recover more than year later. We got vaccinated at the same Costco on the same day. I did it because of pressure from work as I had covid before. I didn't expect any health benefits, but I didn't expect year later I still have regrets to fall into trap.

Source? That would actually be quite encouraging, since it suggests an obvious way to fix the problem.
