It was not announced to be temporary so I would assume so.

Remember: They are only shiny AFTER you tap on them. Don't just look at map.

I assume/hope it is like Ditto: higher spawns with the event that it was released, still available at a lower rate later.

Better hope it isn't literally a Ditto. I heard a horror story of a guy who caught a Shiny Magikarp that turned out to be a Ditto.

I heard that too. The hope there is that when more shiny pokemon start rolling out, that Ditto might actually have a shiny flag in its code and turn out to be a shiny Ditto.

I caught one about 2 how ago. Crap IV and low cp. But he's shiny!

I caught a shiny magikarp after the tweet stating the event ended. I found it a little suspicious though because the shinykarp was followed by three Dratini. Thank you Niantic!
