Vaccine immunity is stronger than natural immunity You are aware this is a hospital (several in USA)?
Where did you pull this info from? Source please
Not Pprune.Studies show that people with previous exposure to SARS-CoV-2 tend to mount powerful immune responses to single shots, and gain little added benefit from another injection

3. What’s more, for people with immunity gained through infection, one dose typically boosts antibody numbers to levels that are equal to, or often greater than, those found in individuals who have not been infected and have received double doses
4.
France, Germany and Italy, among other countries, now advise only one dose of vaccine for people with a healthy immune system and a confirmed previous diagnosis. Many scientists who have studied immune responses to vaccination say such policies are a sensible way to make the most of
limited supplies in countries that are racing to inoculate their populations.

The Israeli preprint does, however, shed light on our increasing understanding of the potent immunity induced by getting the vaccine after having COVID – so-called hybrid immunity.
Several studies show a substantial boost in both antibody and T-cell responses to vaccine in people with previous COVID infection.
A
recent report from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that people who’d recovered from COVID and were later vaccinated had half the risk of reinfection compared with unvaccinated people who’d previously had COVID. So it’s still worth getting the vaccine, even if you have previously had COVID.
The effective immune booster following the combination of natural immunity and a single subsequent vaccine jab also raises the question of whether one dose is enough for people who have had COVID. Several studies report that immune responses to a single dose of either the
Pfizer or
AstraZeneca vaccine exceed those after two doses in people without prior infection.
There are a number of the studies you can read - the theory seems to be that with the natural immunity your body has fought the whole virus unlike what the vaccines produce.
This is a pretty standard profile to see the groups at risk
