Hi doctors! if getting a reaction/becoming mildly ill to a vaccine is good and shows that your immune system is reacting, then isn't it bad or not as good if your immune system does not react and you do not become ill and develop symptoms?

It is ok either way. Mild illness is an outward manifestation that your immune system is reacting to vaccine. However, even if not apparent - doesn't mean your body isn't reacting. Wouldn't fret. I had mild reaction after first Moderna vaccine dose and none after second.
