We were also told the vaccine was about 95% effective. I put those together in my head and came up with the idea that the vaccine helped prevent infection which helps prevent passing it along and helps prevent becoming sick but that it was not a 100% guarantee.
Perhaps omicron drove that 95% number somewhere lower but it is still greater than 0. The vaccine helps all around and really helps prevent serious illness and death but it is not a guarantee.
