Yes. I believe all independent adults should have bodily autonomy and not be dictated by the government what we can and can not do with our own bodies.

Please provide a link or two to laws allowing for forcibly holding someone down and vaccinating them against their wishes.

Me too. There might be regrets and/or consequences to either choice, but they do not negate the fact that people get the choice.

Really now ? I'm a Republican (I guess) and am pro choice. On both issues.

Again, what goes on in the mind of a leftist ? My body my choice , only on certain things ?

It's hilarious the excuses that erupt when leftists are called out on their hypocrisy and inconsistencies

You never see a mea culpa or apology, all you ever get is an emotional tirade and deflection. The left never holds itself accountable for anything, ever

There seems to be an assumption that Covid vaccines are mandatory. Where exactly is that the case? If you're talking about vaccines being required for a job, I would point you to Republican support for at-will employment.

Vaccines were never forced. If an employer, state, city, etc. mandated vaccines, that person could always relocate, find another job, etc.

Banning abortion is forcing a woman to carry a fetus.

One is forced, the other is not.

I’m an ex-Republican current Independent and I support choice in abortion (within reasonable limits) and choice in being vaccinated. No one should be forced to carry a child anymore than they should be forcibly vaccinated.

There is a major difference between abortion and Covid. Abortion is virtually 100% fatal to a human being. Covid, not so much.
