This seems to indicate that a Pfizer vaccination is better than having Covid previously:

Pfizer reduced rates by 82% whereas a Covid infection reduced rates by 73%.

>Fourteen days after a second dose of Oxford-AstraZeneca or Pfizer-BioNTech, rates had dropped by 67% and 82% respectively. In comparison, people who had not been vaccinated but had had COVID-19 before had rates which were 73% lower than unvaccinated individuals

I don't need to. As a general matter I never take a single study as definitive. I'd be an idiot if I did.
