If your "freedom" negatively affects the safety and welfare of the other participants of a community then it's the best interest of that society to either coerse you comply, or expel you.
Selfish personal liberty should never detract from the freedoms of the commonwealth. Not getting vaccinated because someone believe biology is a political decision unilaterally detracts the freedoms of others.

A whole lot of people's newfound official freedom to smoke the stinkiest pot and have the smoke travel through the vents to neighboring apartments does negatively affect very young children and elderly in apartment buildings.
Yet, here we are. Clearly, some negative effects on some people's safety and welfare are not considered as important -- oftentimes by the same people who are really adamant about making everyone else comply with their demands.
