not exactly the same, those vaccinations seem to also to be enough to prevent transmission, which the covid vaccine isn't doing nearly as well as expected
but reducing the severity of symptoms is a good enough, at least against the current variants. Either way I prefer live large-population data over theoretical protection estimates, and countries like the uk and holland are nice guinea pigs for the rest of the world, like sweden was with their misguided policies
