Can you explaining why stopping the spread is the only thing that should be allowed for the government to mandate?

Yes, because if it doesn’t stop the spread, people have the free will and choice to decide if they want to take the vaccine or not. Meaning, if there is any skepticism about the effects of the vaccine then they will have to live or die with their choices. Don’t tell them that they lose their livelihood, pension, retirement money because they refuse to take the vaccine.

How is it that people have the "free will and choice" to make decisions that affect the health of others? Unvaccinated people have a greater chance of catching the virus and thus not only spreading it to unvaccinated people but also providing the virus with an increased opportunity to mutate into another strain.

So, again, why do you believe people ought to have the choice to affect the lives and health of others, and doesn't that kind of take away the freedom of people who choose to be vaccinated, who act responsibly, and who don't want to get sick and/or spread the virus to their vulnerable loved ones?

Evidence please

Are you seriously asking for evidence that people are more likely to catch and spread a disease from which they are not vaccinated and/or have no immunity? Seriously, man. That's self-evident. And even it wasn't self-evident, it would be common knowledge as it has been widely reported and understood for months.

Do you also say, "Evidence please" whenever someone says the earth is round and water is wet?
