I do antiviral drug discovery for a living. But drug discovery is largely tangential to all this.
As for your thinking, there's two things to note: The first is that the immunity that you're looking for is antibody production. But the second thing to note is that the primary way your body fights infection is without antibodies. Unfortunately antibodies require a ton of trial and error for the immune system so you're unlikely to develop any with only minor infection, particularly if it's quickly resolved.
Vaccines work by flooding the body with a shit ton of noninfectious analogs for the immune system to trial itself against, and absent that you won't confer immunity. Vaccines are hard to produce, impossible in many cases even. An HIV vaccine for example, has been a holy grail for decades.
So would a slow, ramping up, series of injections of diluted covid, with a new injection every few days, be a way for a human to eventually develop the antibodies?
The idea of continuous exposure. I don't know, maybe. Or at those dilute levels that aspect of the immune system would never get a chance. That's too far ourside my wheelhouse.
