Well, the definition of vaccine changed late last year after it was found that the Covid vaccinations did not prevent infections.

Definition before late-2020:

"a product that stimulates a person's immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, thereby protecting against that disease",

To

"a preparation used to stimulate the body's immune response against a specific disease".

Now, we are realising that the Covid vaccines are helpless against the new variants, so I guess the definition will be changed even further.

Compared to something like the Smallpox vaccine (lifelong/multi-decade immunity), the Covid vaccine is mostly useless.

Yup. And besides, it's been clear for a good while now that it boils down to personal protection and keeping hospital capacity at bay. Yet there is so much illogical fear of "antivaxxers/unvaccinated" in the vaccinated crowd.
