You're not thinking this through clearly. Zoom out and consider longer time periods.

For any single interaction, your risk of virus transmission is probably lower with a vaccinated individual than with an unvaccinated individual (although the magnitude of the difference is unclear). But unless you're living as a hermit you're going to be in contact with thousands of people over the next several years. Some of those people will be infected and contagious. So you will inevitably be exposed multiple times.

The length of time does not matter when talking about infection rates and population groups.

If you have two population groups A and B and A has a massively lower infection rate then population group A is not going to have the virus surge through the entire population.

But this is all veering off my original point that you can’t claim bodily autonomy as a reason/right to not take preventative measures like the vaccine if you aren’t actually being autonomous.
