Assume that you are at a higher risk, and take precautions appropriately. We do, after all, have a pre-existing immune condition.

There's lots of discussion of this here, and there's lots of information available on line about how to protect yourself and those you love.

If your question was aimed at discerning which of those two things we are more susceptible to, it doesn't matter since we are more likely to contract it in the first place, AND more likely to die from it if we get it!
