Vaccines seem to speed up virus clearance - it looks like the amount of virus in a vaccinated and unvaccinated infected person is the same at their peaks but vaccinated people clear the virus quicker. Basically, they are not infectious as long as unvaccinated.
So, to turn it around, unvaccinated people are more likely to infect others. Plus of course, there's the whole hospitalisation and death thing that vaccines handily protect you from

More nonsense & claptrap. I’m sticking to vaccines do not stop transmission. Utter rubbish it stops transmission by 70%. That table is incorrect.
At the end of the day, you’re vaccinated so if you feel so damn safe, then your apparent risk is small from either unvaccinated or vaccinated persons because being either, does not stop you catching Covid. Stop going on about stupid percentages and misinformation, it is a correct fact that being vaccinated does not stop transmission, there is no sugar coating it with irrelevant and fabricated data.
