Doctors from our hardest hit province (where carnaval was being celebrated as the first carriers came back from places like Italy) are saying that a lot of the people currently in intensive care are young, otherwise healthy adults. Youngest person on assisted breathing (artificial coma too) is 16.

So while your eventual survival chances may be better as a young person, you can still get really, really sick. And in the US, chances are doctors are going to have to make choices about who to help, like they already had to in northern Italy (which has a pretty good health care system).

Anyone who is still out partying these days is playing with fire. And lives.
