So yes anytime you have a reduced function of your immune system you become more susceptible to different infectious agents.

I think this example they are trying to portray in a putative COVID patient is a bit different in that this person rather than suddenly becoming extra sensitive to an infectious agent they became a chronic carrier over a long period of time that through luck and chance developed in their chronically shed virus most or all of the mutations over time that became the U.K. B.1.1.7 variant.

Anyway,
Cheers
