>I live in a college area and young adults are still going over to each others apartments and without practicing social distancing when going out to buy groceries.

That's my point: the young adults don't want to comply with the social distancing, so if someone said "hey, if you let me infect you with this virus that has a 1/50,000 chance of killing you, you can no longer get/transmit the more dangerous strain so you don't have to social distance any more", a lot would take the offer.



Why wouldn't they just say "no" and continue not social distancing?


They don't want to be fined? I thought in most places with a lockdown they're fining people who don't follow social distancing requirements.
