The fact is that contracting COVID is the worst possible way to achieve protection from COVID.
And at some point, you're just classifying everyone as having some sort of "factor". Which isn't useful either. If everyone has a factor, then factors don't matter. Especially if you have a factor that isn't obvious, like Vitamin D deficiency.
And like I implied, healthy, young people have been hospitalized with COVID and some of those have died. Just like some with "factors" have done ok.
But the one thing that reduces complications with a very, very high degree of success is the vaccine. It even reduces your chances of contracting the disease itself.
Not getting the vaccine is entering yourself in the stupidest lottery in history.
