I’m not saying it didn’t reduce your symptoms - it probably did. But there were plenty of people that caught COVID unvaccinated and had the same experience as you.
On the other hand, I had the wonderful experience of catching the first virus and the delta variant. I should have been more protected than with the vaccine by itself as the data clearly showed at the time but it still hit me, a 34 year old decently fit person, almost equally as hard. I had 2-3 weeks of incredibly high fever along with a bunch of other nasty symptoms.
We’re all different. My retirement age mom has never been vaccinated (even though I wish she would have) and she’s either never caught it, which I doubt, or it was so mild she didn’t realize it.
