We all need to keep in mind when the topic of any single effort comes up that none of this exists in isolation, it's not a purely zero sum game. Society can multi-task. You are not wrong at all that it'd be independently also worth also exploring how to directly reach out to and cure the existing smaller groups too. And it's completely fair to acknowledge that sometimes damage reduction efforts for the general population might directly make that harder. But even so, keeping the overall number of people harmed as low as possible is the ultimate goal. And while there is some margin for error, when the level of vaccination drops below herd immunity there can be a sharp, non-linear increase in harm. So while attempting engagement and changing of minds is something to pursue in parallel, it's also necessary to at least try to maintain the status quo in the mean time too.
