It makes perfect sense to me that people might be a little bit concerned about the precedent of allowing the state to mandate that they undergo a medical procedure.
It surprises me that people worry about freedom issues around being forced to have medical insurance, surely being compelled by law to be vaccinated is more worrying.
Bodily integrity is normally regarded as a fairly key right, and the idea that I should be held responsible for what the microorganisms in my body do later (which some in this discussion are arguing) seems pretty crazy to me.
