If anyone is speaking childishly, it's you, with smug condescension thrown right in. As should be obvious, an injection's level of invasiveness is dependent on context, and what is being injected. A needle into the body isn't just a silly little needle if it contains something that can kill or harm. I doubt you'd argue against it being invasive if some doctor in a psychiatric hospital where you were placed against your will decided to inject you with heavy doses of sedatives against your will as well, and against your insistence that you don't clinically need them. I'm not anti-vax or against the covid vaccines. I indeed believe they've done enormous good so far, but your arguments are absurdly absolutist in this context. People certainly deserve a fundamental right to choose if they're injected with certain medicines or not, and to impose injections of only recently created vaccines is certainly invasive under many circumstances, especially when it involves making such choices for minors despite their parents' wishes or even certain clinical recommendations..
