>think they're referring to the hypocrisy of compelling vaccination on someone if you support the idea of bodily autonomy.
One of those things is not like the others.
That's a fallacious argument. No one threatened me with jail for not getting vaccinated and no one threatened the medical folks who gave me my vaccines with jail either.
There are millions of people who may go to prison for providing a private, personal medical procedure. That's wrong.
I'd note that Mississippi and Missouri have both charged women who had miscarriages with capital murder.
I don't think you're seeing the theme of bodily autonomy here. If the underlying argument for abortion is "my body my choice", then that same argument should logically apply to vaccinations.

Like I said, no one threatened me (or anyone else, for that matter) with jail for getting (or not getting) vaccinated, did they?
Nor was anyone threatened with jail for refusing to vaccinate people.
Whereas, many state laws threaten prison (and even face the death penalty) for those who have or provide abortions.
Go to Prison != Folks don't want to be around you if you're more likely to get them sick with a potentially deadly disease.
So, no. It's not the same thing at all.
If you can't see the difference, nothing I say will mean anything to you.
Thats what I thought as well, but since neither myself nor the comment I was replying to mentioned it, I was / am confused how the hypocrisy in question was relevant.
I'm probably overthinking a throwaway internet comment.
