He's discussing the
SPREAD of covid. Not if you get sick again, which unfortunately, people can. But in discussing spread of the disease, he's also discussing the overall risks to everyone, because the more people that get infected, the more the virus replicates and has more opportunities to mutate. It's pretty obvious now that
we need to minimize the risks of developing new variants. Both Delta and Omicron developed in countries with low vax rates.
And the unvaccinated spread covid at higher rates than vaccinated people. They are contributing to the covid infection rates and increasing overall risks at a much greater pace. We all need to do what we can
to continue to minimize the risk of new variants.
"People who are fully vaccinated against covid-19 are far less likely to infect others, despite the arrival of the delta variant, several studies show. The findings refute the idea, which has become common in some circles, that vaccines no longer do much to prevent the spread of the coronavirus."
“They absolutely do reduce transmission,” says Christopher Byron Brooke at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. “Vaccinated people do transmit the virus in some cases, but the data are super crystal-clear that the risk of transmission for a vaccinated individual is much, much lower than for an unvaccinated individual.”
Vaccination still greatly reduces the risk of infecting others despite the arrival of the delta variant, recent studies show

Fully vaccinated people are less likely to contract the coronavirus than unvaccinated people. If they don’t get an infection, they can’t transmit the virus to others.
