Uh, I didn't say that.

This could suggest that the vaccine is having some effect on transmissibility but not enough to conclusively conclude it at this stage.

Are you a dumbass?
There's two ways the vaccine can work: by reducing transmission or by reducing deaths/hospitalizations. I've been fairly clear that the vaccines work by reducing deaths and it's clearly very effective at that.
The comment you were quoting was about whether the vaccines work at reducing transmission, where there isn't enough evidence to be sure. However, if we want to engage in mandate discussion, it's better to mandate it to be on the safe side because it does reduce deaths/hospitalizations and plenty of evidence to suggest that it also has an effect on transmission (although inconclusive). Better to be safe than sorry.
