It seems odd that someone who naturally catches it doesn't become immune, but someone who is given it artificially obtains a varying level of immunity. If having and surviving Covid doesn't give one immunity, it's interesting that being given it artificially does.
The vaccines do not give you the actual live Covid-19 virus. If it did it would mean that anyone who was vaccinated risked passing the virus on to other people.

If you would care to read the following link it explains how the vaccination works.
