I don't think you can ethically intentionally infect people, even volunteers, with a potentially fatal disease. Even some small percentage of young and healthy people are dying from COVID-19.
Some small percentage of young people are dying from the flu too, it's unfortunate, and it happens. We need to keep our eyes focused on the statistics not the anecdotes.
Every disease is potentially fatal. We definitely shouldn't intentionally infect anyone. It's just not necessary.
The best I have is the Italian National Institute of Health (ISS) which did a study on all 2003 dead (back when that was the number). Only 5 have been under the age of 40 and all of them had medical preconditions.
There are young and healthy people that show heavy symptoms and even need ventilation, but they all seem to survive.

yep. Even 100K people at $100K would be just $10B, a laughable amount compare to the $6T stimulus in US.
Either way, people can always infect themselves under most ethics.
Edit: Society at large bears the cost when healthcare is nationalized. If you get your insurance through your employer, those thousands are paid by your employer and co-workers.
I only considered the harm to yourself, but the risk you put others in is also a real factor.
yet, it is somehow ethical to send young healthy people to kill and die in the meaningless wars driven by corporation profits. I think your ethics has extremely serious ethical flaws.
