So we can probably reach herd immunity in a transient sense, but unless the disease is eradicated (unlikely), there'll still be the possibility of outbreaks even in previously vaccinated populations

But key to this is that the disease is likely to be much less severe in vaccinated people, so while elimination is possible but challenging, high vaccination rates are still the ultimate end-goal
