It does technically reduce transmission potential, though indirectly.
If you do contract covid or the flu after having been vaccinated, you are less likely to have severe symptoms, including coughing and sneezing. If you're not coughing up a lung all over the place, you're not spreading as much as someone who is hocking loogeys over everyone else.
Except everyone I know who got the shot has gotten sick way more frequently then those who didn't. That's backed up by the data that shows the shots give an initial boost in immunity, but slow negative effectiveness long term
