That is observational data confounded by reporting and inadequate testing.

Go look at Singapore. 80%+ vaccination rate (Pfizer or Moderna), with regular mass testing.

About 65% of new cases are in fully vaccinated but the new cases are still stacking up. So yes it reduces the risk, but not by 7x. This is backed up by the recent Lancet paper which showed about a ~30% decrease in risk of infection.
