This is a recent change in the defining and expectation of vaccines by the CDC, who just so happened to amend their definition less than a month ago. Vaccines at one time did exactly that...vaccinate to produce immunity. Now they can apparently only "offer protection"....The old definition has apparently been stuffed down the memory hole.
Unfortunately, official medical definitions have not yet been "modified", but I'm sure that will change soon. I don't blame you for the confusion you have, it's hard to keep up with all the redefining, goalpost moving, and technical reframing we're being subjected to these days.

COVID-19 Vaccine: What You Need to Know
Now that COVID-19 vaccines are authorized, here are the facts you need now.
Vaccines stop COVID-19 symptoms, but do they stop transmission?
Fred Hutch researchers are racing to find out whether the new COVID-19 vaccines, which are proven to stop disease symptoms, also block transmission of the virus. If the vaccines are only "symptom-reducing," those who take it might still become infected and possibly contagious. New studies may be...

Yeah, probably those stupid people, who only read what they wanted to read.

All of the classic anti-vax excuses are out in full force this thread.
Meanwhile, your healthcare system is overwhelmed, while other provinces are not

What a lot of people don't get is that the vaccine doesn't eliminate risk, but it reduces it by a significant amount. A favorite line among anti-vaxxers is that they have a small chance of dying or even getting hospitalized without getting vaccinated. What they like to ignore is that risk of transmission is reduced, along with the risk of developing a serious case. So fine, an anti-vaxxer catches a mild case and is back on the streets in no time saying "I told ya so." How many people did he pass the virus along to in the meantime and how many of those cases would eventually go on to cause a few more deaths among seniors ?
What people don’t seem to get , this is not a vaccine , this is an RNA inhibiter . I am not an anti vaccine . I have all my standard vaccines .. What I am is against forcing experimental treatments on an unsuspecting public . Do you know if you are experiencing adverse affects ? Are you 100% sure ?
Great a vaccine that does not stop you from catching the disease and does not stop you spreading the Covid . What good is it again ? Over98% of people that contact this disease recover fully , pretty good chances .
