“No state has the right to mandate that BS either...”
Guess I made myself misunderstood. The term medical becomes the byword in that there is nothing in the Constitution concerning medical actions. And according to the Constitution all powers not within it are granted to the states. Therefore, since there is no mention medical in the document, it falls to the states. This is why the shanghaiing of the abortion issue by the feds was so out of line for 50 years. But the only people that have the option of making any medical decisions are the states not what those decisions are. The feds can’t go there at all legally.

No, I understood you perfectly the first time - the feds have no Constitutional authority to meddle in anything like medical decisions as well as a whole host of other things that they have been meddling in.
But saying that it then falls to the states suggests that there is a form of government somewhere that must have the right to make medical decisions for people and we are simply arguing over which level of government that is, whereas my point is that there is NO government, at any level, that has the authority to mandate something like an experimental injection. One of the most fundamental and God-given rights is that of autonomy over one’s own body. This is not just a discussion of Constitutional limits
