“We’re still in a state of emergency. This disease has not been extinguished. It’s not vanished, it’s not taking the summer months off,” Newsom said during a news conference to draw the names of 15 vaccinated people to win $50,000.

If they didn't take into account that a quarter of our population all ready had covid, they would never get a ninety five percent effective rate against the virus turning into covid 19. Take away vaccines of those who already had it and I bet the effectiveness would drop below eighty five.

Just a hunch:
#1 Pre-screening with Antibody tests would require far more (highly trained) medical personnel, massively increased number of labs, and would cost far more than simply vaccinating everyone and increase the timeframe significantly.
#2 Natural Antibodies would appear to be strain dependent where the vaccine is not e.g. There's been cases of people being infected more than once by different strains where the vaccines appears to be reasonably effective at reducing the possibility of getting "bad" Covid across all strains.
Unfortunately we still don't know how long a vaccine will be effective for. Will those that got a dose in January need a new shot after 8 months (similar to antibodies) or they lose immunity ?
That's a lot more vaccines required and for a far longer period of time if we are truly going to open the world to pre-covid levels anytime soon.

"The study findings reveal that individuals with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection do not get additional benefits from vaccination"
but they get to enjoy the risks from it.
