Not necessarily. In the general scope, general vampires (not higher) were classifed into high and low. It was eventually re-defined on the page to better explain the difference between the 3: higher vampires are true vampires that (by game lore) can't be killed by anyone but other higher vampires and, more importantly (in book lore) not detectable by even witcher medallions. Then you have high vampires (termed "high grade") that are still intelligent but can be killed by certain means, and then of course the lower vampires who are animalistic than intelligent. Bruxa fall into the high grade and in the trailer it's shown she's dead and thus, by game lore, isn't a higher vampire. That's what SMiki was confirming in that thread: there's confusion on what a true higher vampire is (not the same as a high vampire grade) and the way Orianna is shown in the trailer, she's more of a high grade vampire than a higher vampire. Also even by context alone, you'll see in the trailer Geralt's medallion does react when he gets close to her in the barn, indicating she's not a higher vampire.
