This is dangerous information.
Natural immunity is NOT better.
I´ve know at least 10 people with Covid - vaccinated, None hospitalised, all very degrees of unwell, but all recovered.
I know at least 3 people who refused vaccines and caught - in hospital, one very very seriously repeat visits.
So if you catch Covid and your body is left unprepared with no vaccine or untested immune response, chances are if you don´t have a jab and catch it - YOU ARE FAR MORE LIKELY TO BE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED.
Look at the US data for obvious proof - the much higher death rates were by unvaccinated in ´Red states´ - AKA Trump supporting anti-vaxxers or states which for quite some time has right-wing politicians who were denying this was necessary - and offering such great advice, such as selling and eating mud as a natural benefit.

Excerpt - ´An ABC News analysis of federal data found that on average, the death rates in states that voted for Trump were more than 38% higher than in states that voted for Biden, post widespread vaccine availability´
It does seem the Delta strain is about - I do not believe 34% of over 60´s have this - another quote from another poster. If you are going to quote stats like that which will alarm people, perhaps put in a link with further detail. It is possible of course in some areas the rates will be higher - but across the whole of Spain - I have not seen any mention of 34% of the over 60´s have this?
If natural immune response was the ´better way´- then no vaccine would exist as that´s how they all work - giving your body a litlte of the virus to provoke a response in the body, so when Covid does come for you - your body willl still catch it, but the immune response has seen the virus and for the vast majority, responds better.
As for those jumping on the right wing / anti vax media circus. Tetanus, Polio, TB and others are vaccines that most of us have had - did you complain at school? did your parents kick up a foss? The only reason why this fuss over the Covid vaccine started, is simply politics and money - it´s not good for big business!
