There is no hypocrisy. The situations simply aren’t comparable at all, in fact.
Pro-lifers aren’t against people having bodily autonomy in general. I’m not at least. They’re against a choice with no other outcome than the death of a developing child. That’s what an abortion is. That’s what it does. It’s not that you have a slightly higher risk of ending a life. You’re guaranteeing it ends.
Someone not choosing to get this vaccine and advocating they should have the right to weigh their own personal risk factors from getting covid versus the potential side effects from getting the vaccine is entirely different. It’s a series of risks assessments to their own personal health in relation to actually catching covid, with the chance of death being extremely low even after catching covid. Then there’s an even smaller risk of transmitting covid to someone else, a risk that can easily be mitigated by limiting contact with people when you’re actually sick. And getting vaccinated doesn’t even do much to mitigate those risks anyway. The vaccinated can still catch and spread covid.
Besides which, being told you can’t do something in a certain situations (abortion after going through all the choices required to get pregnant) is inherently different from being told you absolutely must do something regardless of your situation (mandatory vaccination regardless of natural immunity or risk factors). Both relate to choice, sure, but not in the same way and certainly not in a comparable fashion.
“You can’t do this” and “you must do that” aren’t even comparable propositions. Pretending they are to expand government authority into potentially every aspect of life is seriously concerning.

Banning abortion is actually supporting bodily autonomy. We're talking about the right of a baby to live and enjoy the same rights with regard to its body as the mother.
One thing I've always noticed is that women never ever refer to the baby in their womb as a fetus unless they want to kill it. Everyone intuitively understands that the baby is a growing human life that deserves rights as much as anyone else, but women disregard that and play god when it is inconvenient for them.
They need to grow up and accept that they are not more important than their baby just because they are stronger and more mature. They would hate if men took that attitude towards them, but they hypocritically do the same thing to the life growing within.
