Source data from that article: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/pdfs/mm7104e1-H.pdf

That article is misleading, because it's comparing hazard rates of people who have had COVID before and were unvaccinated versus people who didn't have COVID before and were vaccinated. Best case scenario are people who are vaccinated and had COVID. Worst off are people are not vaccinated and hadn't had COVID.

I've seen this claim elsewhere and it's frustrating because people just read the headline and regurgitate this nonsense. So much for "doing your own research".



Is that not intentional? To compare the immunity gained from having the virus, to the immunity gained from vaccination?
