The problem is it can affect other's health because not everybody can get the vaccine and there's precedent for vaccines being forced for public health. Many countries require proof of immunization, schools can require it, etc. This vaccine at best is probably only going to be 70% effective, which means to actually gain herd immunity, we still need just about everybody to get it to protect those who can't take it or it's not effective within. On top of that we will have to use masks potentially for awhile still to really eradicate it - making it incidental and reducing r0 substantially when it can't jump because of all the vaccinated population will eventually make it not a thing except in developing nations.
