I'm guessing because they give you protection without actually catching the potentially harmful virus in the first place?

No they used "only" as in "not very long". The question is asking how can you say it's not very long when the covid vaccination lasts less than a year in comparison

6 months is pretty short in both cases, but I think darkcha0s has me right, the cost is much lower in the vaccination case.

For a much most positive example of how that matters:

“How long did he retire for?“ “Only six months“

vs.

“How long did he go on holiday for?“ “Only six months“
