I'm not trying to promote any side of things, but to answer your question, a virus is naturally occurring (assuming the virus hasn't been tampered with such as having been weaponized). A vaccine is a processed mixture of things (perhaps stabilizers, preservatives, etc.) and therefore is not naturally occurring, so the body will deal differently with it than it would with something straight from nature.
In addition, and I don't know if the patent process is involved with the COVID vaccine, in order for pharmaceutical companies to patent they must add something to a naturally occurring substance. You can't patent a plant, but you can patent a plant derivative with other proprietary ingredients added.
