Not at my fingertips.
But you have to be infected to spread the infection, correct? Otherwise, you are just physically moving the virus from point A to points B, C, D, etc. which is what hygiene and distancing are supposed to address and which no vaccine will affect (effect? English is confusing even for Americans). Anyway, if the vaccine keeps the infection rate much much lower than without the vaccine, then you cannot spread it because you aren't infected. Gets back to that "herd immunity" thing.
Vaccine effectiveness is out there at FDA, CDC, and more.
