If you want a question- what will be the acceptable risk for covid once a vaccine is readily available?

Give yourself a massive face palm.
Measles vaccine is very efficacious at about 95%. With MMR immunisations and immunity coverage (remember a lot of people born before 1970 actually caught measles) at about 70%, this means we effectively have herd immunity from measles in Australia.
