Wasn't that what it was designed to do?

And btw, I've not only had covid (2 years ago), but I've had both my vax shots, plus a booster...
That is not what we were told at all. I distinctly remember finally being fully vaccinated and was totally relieved that I would not wind up in the hospital if I contracted Covid. I don't recall ever being informed that these mRNA vaccines would prevent transmission of Covid. Sterilizing vaccines prevent transmission of diseases and these mRNA vaccines are not that type of vaccine. I've know this all along. I guess it depends on your news sources.

What is sterilizing immunity and do we need it for the coronavirus? | TheHill
