I heard against the Delta variant, RNA vaccines help divide the chance of contaminating others by at least two, even if you're asymptomatic (because basically, the virus last half the tine in your body). And also, since you're contaminated for less time, there is fewer chance of a variant popping out of a vaccinated person. Take it as someone who heard someone talk about it, did not research himself (because i don't really care) and isn't really sure of what the truth is. See this comment as a clue if this stuff interest you.

Halving is not good enough when the infectivity is very high. The Vietnam study showed that 49/69 "trained doctors and nurses" gave the virus to each other despite being vaccinated. God only knows how many patients they infected. see https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3897733 https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3897733 for details. (But this is HN, and I will be downvoted into oblivion. Carry on folks. Keep ignoring the data.)
