These vaccines don't prevent you from contracting the virus. What they do is use you MRNA to prevent the virus from replicating itself in your body. The virus replicating is what makes you ill. The vaccine prevents you from getting seriously ill and dying. So you can still have the vaccine in your body and transmit it to others.
Since the point of wearing a mask is to prevent the wearer from spreading the virus, a mask is still necessary until everyone that wants to be vaccinated is vaccinated.
Those who refuse the vaccine are risking their lives so it's not the responsibility of every else to keep them safe once they've had the opportunity to get the shots.
