Early COVID variants were more fatal than later ones even before accounting for resistances; we might reasonably expect that the variant that does breakthrough will be less deadly, if only because an extremely deadly virus tends to incapacitate the people who would otherwise be spreading it
As likely as any other flu, which is basically guaranteed. I doubt it will become a 2020-style shutdown though, purely because that would be unpopular
