Abortion is not even remotely comparable to this particular issue since it doesn't harm anyone but the real stakeholders. Not getting vaccine threaten everyone around you. Probably it's more comparable to the idiom "your right to swing your fist ends where my nose begins".

> Not getting vaccine threaten everyone around you

I am kind of tired of hearing that when ACTUAL DATA shows that vaccinated people transmit the virus just as well.

I am also kind of tired of hearing those who tries to turn this complex statistical problem into a simple binary problem in order to make an argument against vaccine.

Yeah, it's not a binary problem but the reproduction rate drastically decreases with vaccine. Vaccinated people may transmit the virus, but they're less likely to get infected at the first moment AND less likely to spread. This is supported by ACTUAL DATA from everywhere, including Israel and Portugal.
