So, what they are saying is that the ONLY thing that the current vaccinations do toward Covid is to minimize the effects when you become infected. Does not prevent passing it on and it does not prevent you from becoming infected.
The vaccinated lower viral loads and are infectious for a shorter period of time so risk of infecting others is reduced.
