None of these violate your bodily autonomy.

Nor does a vaccine passport? It only prevents you from lying about a major public health threat.
it really doesn't do that, its intent is to prevent freedom of travel to the unvaccinated. Most people I know that are not vaccinated are very open about it and they can be; as there are currently very few if any prohibition on where they can go. The purpose of the vaccine passport is to end that freedom.
can i sue you if i catch covid from you for violating my autonomy? only half joking.
You can try, but to succeed you would essentially have to prove that it came from me and that I all but intentionally infected you. Negligence would require that my actions are not the actions of a prudent person. With 50% of the population not being vaccinated it may be hard to prove what a prudent person would do.

I'm vaccinated and would encourage others to get vaccinated but I am very much against forcing it on anyone.

i imagine perspective of being sued for spreading it would be a good motivation to get vaccinated.
