Except confined in a Sub would mean higher chance of high viral load, and thus greater chance of those younger healthier people getting a bad case, as we've seen this past few months compared to last Spring. My ex-missus is on the front line of the NHS, and she said they have seen higher numbers of otherwise fit 25-40 year olds in ICU this winter than last spring, largely as a result of higher viral loads from extended exposure with infected people in higher density households during winter time, especially with the newer more transmissible mutations.
