One problem here. If you choose to be a pig and die of a heart attack, it is only you that dies. There is a reason we have laws against drunk driving, drugs, speeding etc. it’s to stop people who want to do things their way from hurting others. Sure not everyone obeys those laws but most do, at least fairly closely.
If you have a highly contagious disease and let people run rampant as they choose, individuals are putting others as risk.
