Absolutely correct.

Absolutely incorrect. I did not say, or even infer, that they provided no protection. My flu shot analogy is perfectly apt, the vaccine, in most cases, reduces the risk of exposure, reduces the severity of symptoms and reduces the chance of the vaccinated transmitting the virus. Hence, as I said, the vaccine is far more comparable to a flu shot then the other vaccines I mentioned, which largely, close to 100%, completely prevent the disease in question.
Your rebuttal does not address my actual argument.
