When a government says take this "voluntary" health treatment or lose your job, that treatment becomes compulsory for anyone not wealthy enough to do without that job. If it was a National government imposing vaccine mandates, or a private company, perhaps more of the left would recognize that they violate people's basic rights as workers?
