Protection from prior COVID-19 infection was better than the protection from COVID-19 vaccines against the Delta virus variant, according to a new study published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Researchers analyzed health records from California and New York that were entered between May 30 and Nov. 20, 2021. They separated COVID-19 patients into four groups: unvaccinated with no previous COVID-19 diagnosis, unvaccinated with a previous COVID-19 infection, vaccinated with no prior COVID-19 infection, and vaccinated with prior COVID-19 infection.
Those who had not received a COVID-19 vaccine but were infected previously with the illness were much less likely to test positive for COVID-19 when compared to vaccinated people who had not gotten COVID-19, according to the study, which was published Wednesday in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
People who had not gotten a vaccine but did have a prior infection, also known as natural immunity, were also less likely to land in a hospital than the vaccinated without natural immunity, according to hospitalization records from California.
The unvaccinated without prior infection were by far the most likely to contract COVID-19 and require hospital care, the study found.
“These results suggest that vaccination protects against COVID-19 and related hospitalization and that surviving a previous infection protects against a reinfection. Importantly, infection-derived protection was greater after the highly transmissible Delta variant became predominant, coinciding with early declining of vaccine-induced immunity in many persons,” researchers, including Tomás Leon with the California Department of Public Health, wrote.
Because the time period studied only went through late November, more research is needed to examine whether vaccination and prior infection protects as well against the Omicron virus variant, which became dominant in the United States last month, the researchers said.
They also encouraged people to get vaccinated even if they have natural immunity, pointing to the finding that the vaccinated with prior infection were the most protected against infection and hospitalization, according to the health records.
Experts are divided as to whether the naturally immune should get a jab, with some noting studies that indicate the protection increases but others highlighting how the elevation is, in many cases, minimal, and pointing to other research that suggests side effects are more likely among naturally immune getting a vaccine.
Limitations of the report include the potential for bias related to unmeasured confounding and the analysis not including information on the severity of infection.
Dr. Jeffrey Klausner, a clinical professor of medicine at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California who was not involved in the study, told The Epoch Times in an email that the findings “strongly support the need to update our vaccination policy, work and school requirements,” with those who can demonstrate they have natural immunity being given equal access as those who are vaccinated.
“Vaccination is a much, much, safer pathway to immunity than getting infected, but in an otherwise healthy person who has recovered, they should have confidence that they [have] protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death,” he added.
The Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report is a weekly publication from the CDC. Most studies are not peer-reviewed but the articles are reviewed by CDC officials before being published and the content, by the time it’s published, “constitutes the official voice” of the CDC, the agency has said

Incredible. Yet the persecutions continue worldwide against the unvaxxed...
They have known this all along

RE: Yet the persecutions continue worldwide against the unvaxxed...
There are several types of unvaxxed:
1) Those who have recovered from Covid and have acquired natural immunity
2) Those who have been exposed to Covid but were asymptomatic and have acquired Natural Covid Antibodies
3) Those who have NEVER been exposed or had Covid at all and still do not have natural immunity or antibodies
Australia Open Champion Novak Djokovic for example, belongs to the first type.
Unfortunately, governments want a one size fit all solution — FORCE EVERYONE TO BE VACCINATED regardless of what type you are.
They sure want that vaccine in our bodies for some reason. I guess the vaccinated will find out why. I’ve had Covid, I’m not getting the fax. God help the vaccinated.
BTTT
Well, well.
They just won’t let go though:
“Experts are divided as to whether the naturally immune should get a jab, with some noting studies that indicate the protection increases but others highlighting how the elevation is, in many cases, minimal, and pointing to other research that suggests side effects are more likely among naturally immune getting a vaccine.”
An immunization which does not immunize. approved by data collectors who misrepresent the data they collect, and media hysteria make the pandemic, not actual deaths from a virus in a given population.
As of 18 January 2022,
Johns Hopkins University's "official" data -- ( 5,547,903 "global deaths" / 7,921,131,915 global population ) x 100 = 0.070% of the global population.

Worldometer's "official" data -- ( 5,583,850 "global deaths" / 7,921,131,915 global population ) x 100 = 0.070% of the global population.

The "pandemic" is at the minimum a criminal fraud to sell mRNA technology and products. What more sadly remains to be seen.
NKVD are at it again
Went thru the study. Comparison was made vax vs previous infection recovered people. But it did not address age of vax or age/duration of previous infection, and in the case of that previous infection what the dosage was of the inhaled virus particles. Naturally it could not. The issue of false positives also finds its way into the data.
There is a blurb in the report addressing age/duration of recovered immunity. France did a big study and said it’s not long in duration. Confirmed by an Israel study. But then not confirmed in the US or UK.
So there has been an aggressive leap to conclude things about that CDC report, but you have to read all of it to find it doesn’t really say all that much. No real seasonal control, or prevailing case density at some particular sampling dates.
The only way to test for this stuff is to put people in a room, infect them, have them recover and then spray virus up their nose again. Same done to vaxed people, with vax brand new.
It will never be done.
They want to get the clot shot into everyone. What comes next?
The biggest deficit of the study was that it only examined hospital patients - which is already a very select (and thus "skewed") group.
The vast proportion of people with natural immunity whose natural immunity was so powerful that they never had to be hospitalized was thus ignored.

Bullsh*t!
How many millions of the "Unvaxxed" got the Bug, but experienced symptoms so mild that they didn't even notice, or mistook it for a mere case of the "Sniffles," didn't bother going to a physician, and so were never recorded as having acquired natural immunity? No one knows!

What we knew all along ...
This was a pilot program for a real bio weapon. Its main purpose was to get rid of populism and induce globalism.
Which article did you review? Which title or page number? It’s a really long set of articles.
—— “Its main purpose was to get rid of populism and induce globalism.”
Totally agree.
But you still have to get the vax no matter how immune you are.
