You're leaving out the context: they can be just as infectious once they become infected, which is significantly less likely for those who are fully vaccinated.

Vaccines significantly reduce the transmissability of the virus by making it less likely for those vaccinated to become infected, NOT by making them less infectious if they are infected.
