See these peer-reviewed papers for some insight into the second and third order evolutionary dynamics that we face with the current spike protein focused mRNA vaccines for SARS-CoV-2 [1][2].

These are serious long-term concerns, which may not manifest overnight, but they are certainly on the radar of many experts in the field.
