But still, it is better than getting deliberately infected.
And sure enough current vaccines are not a viable strategy, but it tells you nothing about covid vaccines as a whole.

Flu vaccines are a viable strategy, they save many lives despite a rather low effectiveness and requiring yearly injections.
