No it doesn't. All available data show that those with natural immunity are immune to covid far more than those with vaccine immunity.
Why should those with natural immunity be stigmatized?
Is this about immunity and getting out of a pandemic or is it about compliance and control or about something else entirely? Should be about the first, to me, and if so, natural immunity should not be stigmatized at all.

(Depending on context, "getestet", meaning tested negatively, is also fine.) So no, "natural immunity" is not treated any differently from "artificial immunity", and it absolutely is about getting out of a pandemic without too many people dying. By the way, there is no difference. Immunity is immunity.

Specifically, they were infected with the coronavirus in 2020 and then immunized with mRNA vaccines…” * Natural immunity is not nearly enough. Everyone should get vaccinated. Those who have had covid should get vaccinated so that they can get a chance of super-human SARS-variants protection. Those who have not caught covid so that they avoid the very high risk of long covid, and of course to reduce their risk of hospitalization by an order of magnitude. * https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2021/09/07/1033677208/new-studies-find-evidence-of-superhuman-immunity-to-covid-19-in-some-individuals https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2021/09/07/1033677...
