Agree, but studies show that natural immunity (having COVID) isn't as strong, not as long lasting, and may not be as effective against all variants, as acquired immunity (vaccinations).
Also, the natural immunity of having COVID depends on how severe one's COVID symptoms are. Severe symptoms usually lead to better natural immunity, asymptomatic usually leads to little natural immunity.
Vaccines are consistently strong across the board.
My grandson had COVID (slight symptoms, no hospitalization) before he was eligible for a vaccine. He has since been fully vaccinated (for his age group). His pediatrician says that his antibody levels are now off the chart.
