You're grasping at straws, looking for evidence they want to compel everyone to do something they might not want to do, but there is zero evidence of that being their intent. In all of these cases there is some extrinsic concern that underpins the law. Show one example where they are obviously trying to make people do something just for the sake of doing it. You're allowing your own fears of being controlled by others to interfere with your objectivity over the facts at hand. Your irrationality can cause people to die for this very reason, you freak out that you're being controlled by the government, and so you dont go along with some measure that might save lives, your own or others.

When you sign up for the military, you give ownership of your body to the US Govt. I would not suggest anyone do that.

No, I'm not grasping at straws, and I'm not afraid. Look at what's going on in New York, the article linked below is for anybody. They ramble on about how it's for the children(what's not for the children?), but it's applied to everyone.

*"Members of the city's Health Department will check the vaccination records of any individual who may have been in contact with infected patients.

Those who have not received the vaccine or do not have evidence of immunity may be given a violation and could be fined $1,000."* https://wcbs880.radio.com/articles/mayor-de-blasio-declares-health-emergency-orders-measles-vaccinations-williamsburg-amid

I'm sure you'll say 'no', and that's fine, we can agree to disagree. On that note, you somewhat missed my reference to the military; people don't always have a choice to join.
