3 doses of vaccination is 60% protective against Omicron transmission. Its not 100% effective, but it's a lot higher than "doesn't".


60% seems quite high, given that the CDC director says that the vaccines cannot prevent transmission anymore, but I haven't seen any confirmed numbers for Omicron transmission so far.

Only a little high:

(effectiveness against Omicron peaks at 55% after the boosters and then declines)

Protection against severe disease remains high even with just 2 doses.
