Nobody will force you but your protection is significantly improved if you get vaccinated and you will also be protecting friends and family. The risks from COVID-19 are much, much higher than the risks from the vaccine. Deaths from the vaccine are vanishingly rare and the other reported problems are nearly always temporary. You are actually taking a bigger risk every time you get in a car.

The vaccine is safe and effective. There have been rare cases of heart inflammation. Most cases quite mild. The benefits weigh in favor of the vaccination. The COVID-19 vaccination is recommended.
