None of that is true. Vaccines do not create a magic barrier that keeps the virus out. They all work by potentiating the immune system to have antibodies ready to go if the virus does enter - and in every case from smallpox to polio, infections occur, the immune system does its job and people experience sickness symptoms (fever, aches, etc), but the disease does not progress beyond that. Most people exposed to polio end up not realizing they were exposed but figured they had the flu.
The literal exact same thing happens with covid shots. The mRNA potentiates the appropriate immune response - you still get "sick feeling" symptoms but not full blown covid.

But you know, I'm just a retard with a PhD and a wife with an MD/MPH who used to be an epidemiologist working within the community health field.
