Under a paywall sorry. They do give you a few free stories a month. It appears best immunity is being infected AND vaccinated. But both should be acceptable as being protected.



Covid-19 Vaccines or Infections: Which Carries the Stronger Immunity?

Evidence is building that immunity from Covid-19 infection is at least as strong as that from vaccination. Scientists are divided on the implications for vaccine policy.

Vaccines typically give rise to a stronger antibody response than infection, which might make them better at fending off the virus in the short term. Infection triggers a response that evolves over time, possibly making it more robust in the long term. A combination of both types appears to be stronger than either alone.

Some numbers I had found in Colorado.
Jan - mid-August - about 2600 reinfections.
First 3 weeks of July - 2500 breakthrough cases and it climbed from there.

Previous infection seems stronger than vaccines. Of the 2600 reinfections, Only 12 of those were fully vaccinated.

Problem we don't know everyone who was infected and has been vaccinated. Only the ones who were tested.

vaccines also typically work better than the covid vaccines.
i wished this worked as well as some other vaccines. if it did i'd probably believe the immunity from the vax was better than from infection.

If you've had the bug, why would you even consider the risk of side effects of the vaccine? Is that risk fairly small? Yes-but not negligible. The risk of a really serious infection after having been infected? Yeah, that IS negligible.

Had I had covid, I wouldn't have gotten a vaccine for at least a year according to the research I've read. I probably would have gotten a booster by now but scared of the vaccine now after it gave my healthy 30 years old son a heart attack.
