My partner was fucking healthy before her first and only COVID infection. Also if one includes those "at risk" (old, chronically ill, cancer surviving, diabetic, too young to vaccinate, etc), it's like 50% of the human population.
I'm pretty sure "at risk" included pretty much all mental health disorders too. I remember reading articles listing those at risk around the time the vaccines came out (and thus around the time of "take your masks off its over" round 1).
Yeah depression and stress both impair your immune system, and given that everyone is depressed and stressed now... 🤮
Cortisol in the blood, among other things. Descartes was full of shit; the brain and body are connected in an interwoven way.

Stress factors affect pretty much everything negatively, from weight gain, to schizophrenia, to immune response. So on and so on.
