One thing I've heard through the gun-business grapevine is that at least two of the major ammo companies that also offer primers are making primers for the U.S. military.

But other than that, yes, I believe we'll see primers available a reasonable prices again--because that's happened before, after every one of the previous shortages going back to the 1990s, once most handloaders buy enough to feel comfortable. Like the previous shortages, this one has mostly been caused by panic buying, not a lack of production.
