>First of all, ADE is a concern for anyone infected by a virus, whether through vaccination or natural infection. That's a false equivalency. Immunity in the unvaccinated but previously infected is broad. The immune system reacted to all parts of the virus, and the variants the unvaccinated were infected with are diverse. In the vaccinated the immunity is narrow, only to the spike protein section of the original Wuhan strain. It's a reasonable suggestion that the vaccinated are at greater risk of ADE (with very narrow immunity to the original strain's spike protein only) than those infected naturally from a later variant of the entire virus. Also, the data shows rising COVID cases in areas with more vaccination. I haven't heard a rational explanation for this phenomenon beyond political spin.
