That is not necessarily true. It's possible for a vaccine to elicit a stronger or longer lasting immune response than the pathogen itself. For example by adding adjuvants

I don't see where in that article it says what you are describing. Only that adjuvants may improve the response to a vaccine. The response to the pathogen is not considered.
