Nothing is for certain until the FDA gives the go ahead (and even then, imagine if the agency has to pull a vaccine off the market).
Not everyone can or will want to be vaccinated.
The vaccine will not be 100% effective. The FDA has said that a 50% effective vaccine is approvable, and most predictions put it around 70% effectiveness. That still leaves a lot of cases of COVID-19.
We don't know how long-lasting immunity will be.
So even if a vaccine is approved, there will be room for treatment paradigms.
