Absolutely, that’s step 1

Step 2 is then taking it out of circulation to the greatest extent possible. A 70% effective vaccine is going to do that well over a relatively short period of time.

The problem is there are of course a huge number of people that are not in the very vulnerable category that can still get very unwell with or without hospital treatment.

If we went for immunise the vulnerable plus herd immunity, I think it would mean relaxing lockdown would take a very long time. Frankly, I don’t really see it as a goer when science seems to have have delivered something that works.
