No, "The vaccine is good, I should get the vaccine" is a personal health decision. "The vaccine is good, everyone should get the vaccine" is a much, much broader claim, which only makes sense as an attempt to justify a mandate, which has all of the downsides you list. That's why I objected to it: because framing such a broad claim as a "personal health decision" or a "centrist position" is exactly the kind of lack of critical thinking that you rightly criticize.
