"being unvaccinated was associated with 2.34 times the odds of reinfection compared with being fully vaccinated"[1]

that correction is not relevant to this thread. The title is misleading when talking about vaccines alone vs infection alone, but it is not misleading in regards to this discussion - "you should still get a vaccine even if you have natural immunity". The study DID show that vaccine + infection is better than just infection.

Here is more evidence:
