This can't be that hard to understand. It's not that going outside is more risky, but rather that people who go outside tend to also enter enclosed space with people of other groups. It's about maintaining small exposure capsules.

As an intuition pump, imagine everybody stayed home for 14 days at the same time. No exceptions. The pandemic would be over in two weeks. Why? Because you can at most infect those in the same household, and you either die or recover with immunity.

As an intuition pump, consider that this is an airborne virus that spreads within apartment buildings, from apartment to apartment. It would not be gone in two weeks.

As further intuition pump, consider that huge part of mortality, half in Germany, involves ppl in institutional care, who are already in isolation & appear to acquire the disease in hospitals and spread it among themselves, independently of everyone you would lock in apartments.
