Isn’t H1N1 from the Spanish Flu from 100 years ago still around?

Of course it is. So is the plague, polio, small pox...

You can reach herd immunity without a vaccine, once enough people have exposed.

Depending on how contagious the disease is, 50 - 90% of the population need exposed before it goes away, which it will all by its own once we reach that point. As thousands of times before in the history of mankind (viruses existed before the US media and politics discovered them), this virus will simply disappear once the paths of transmission are closed regardless of what protective measures we take which merely “delayed” the inevitable without a viable vaccine.
