I completely agree with this hypothesis, it explains why groups so disparate have all seen similar outcomes(low instances of severe covid:
-homeless
-celebrities
-children
What do all these groups have in common?
Age? well count out celebrities, ie. Tom Hanks, Prince Philip(both are in advanced age).
Good health? I'd count out homeless as a lot suffer from chronic ill-health.
Weight? Some heavier celebrities have had covid and been fine, its an important metric though.
Exposure to a lot of viruses? Yes, all three groups are in constant exposure to a multitude of viruses, from children in daycare, to celebrities interacting with tons of people to always traveling, to homeless getting exposed to viruses in trash and living in unsanitary conditions.
