No, cells infected with full virus rna produce complete copies of the virus (I'm sure there are mistakes) but they are assembled before they break out of the cells. The covid vaccine exclusively induces production of spike protein, which is thought to be the protein that binds to cell surfaces and allows cell entry. Presumably cells which produce the protein and cells to which the proteins attach are attacked by the recipient's immune system.
The human body is in delicate balance and there's a lot that can go wrong. Medical science unironically has only come so far - we just recently discovered the glymphatic system, and that's orders of magnitude in larger, in scale and energies, than cellular level chemical dynamics. Within and without our cells is a soup of thousands of subtlety interacting compounds which is poorly understood.
