The Founders covered this in their writings. The defined rights were not to be considered the extent of the rights afforded the people.
They worried about including a specific Bill of Rights as it would lead to belief rights were indeed limited to the things they included.
A right to one’s own bodily agency, to discuss and engage in medical discourse and behaviors, is not explicitly called out in the Bill of Rights but it’s also not explicitly denied. The court uses that logic constantly when it empowers elites.
I think it’s pretty obvious America is done for since the people themselves believe now the powers that be can police their speech and agency in private settings when it’s merely what they don’t agree with.
