> Do we have agency over our own bodies or not?
I believe the answer is somewhere in-between. We certainly don't have full agency over our own bodies. Can't take the drugs you want or need without asking permission, you're highly encouraged to stay healthy, vaccinations are mandatory, suicide is highly discouraged.
As always, it's a trade-off between the individual self and the society we live in.
