The number of COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough infections reported to CDC likely are an undercount of all SARS-CoV-2 infections among fully vaccinated persons. National surveillance relies on passive and voluntary reporting, and data might not be complete or representative. These surveillance data are a snapshot and help identify patterns and look for signals among vaccine breakthrough cases.
Data on patients with vaccine breakthrough infection who were hospitalized or died will be updated regularly. Studies are being conducted in multiple U.S. sites that will include information on all vaccine breakthrough infections regardless of clinical status to supplement the national surveillance."
Here is the actual CDC statement, and nowhere in it does it say people who have been fully vaccinated can not spread the virus.

I am still waiting for a link or reference that makes that claim. I will concede that the odds are very low, but I have found nothing to support that it does not and can not happen.
