Equating clothing with an injection is stupid.

I agree. Clothing is far more expensive, requires a non-trivial amount of time, money, and energy to maintain, and really doesn't provide much benefit to those around you once you've achieved the bare minimum of covering your butthole so you don't smear poop residue on whatever you sit on. By contrast, vaccines are very cheap (if you have to pay for them at all), require pretty much no further action or upkeep beyond a day or two of side effects, and reduces the risk of getting other people sick or even killing them. Needing to wear clothing is obviously way worse than needing to get vaccinated. They're not even comparable.

It's like you people like being told what to do.

I can't necessarily speak for everyone else, but I'm pretty neutral on being told what to do. Sometimes it's helpful, sometimes it's harmful, sometimes it's redundant... Given that I'm not a rebellious teenager, I don't define my personal identity on a basis of rejecting authority.

In this particular case, I got the shot long before any sort of mandates were even being considered, so it makes absolutely no difference to me that they're telling me to get vaccinated. I am, however, glad that they're telling all the people who were too stupid to make the right decision on their own what to do, since apparently that's necessary.

You cant un inject yourself.

Fortunately, that's not really something anyone actually ever needs to do. If you end up with an adverse reaction (which is quite rare), that's generally easy enough to address by applying additional treatments, with no need to un-inject anything.

Not the non existant mandates for a the other vaccinations.

Workers in many professions have been required to have vaccines for roughly as long as vaccines have existed, whenever not being vaccinated presents a risk to their clients, the public, their colleagues, or their ability to continue doing their work. You can't even start med school in Canada without proof of most childhood vaccines, plus TB immunity.

Try to keep up.
