Like in WandaVision, I think we'll eventually learn that the infected are still conscious/aware while under the control of the hive. At present, they're just puppets of the hive that has full access to their memories.
Somehow Carol is going to get through to "Pirate Lady" / Zosia and either free her from or weaken her link to the collective (ala Seven of Nine from Voyager)
The way the collective is so accommodating to the immune is just its defense mechanism. Once "they" figure out the fix for the immunity, things will get much darker.
Edit: I really hope #1 does not turn out to be true. Thinking about the guy with the harem brings some some truly horrifying implications.
This is late, but I'm leaning toward 1 being the case. My prediction is that she will slowly grow more comfortable with the Hive over Season 1. She'll start thinking that maybe it's not so bad, and maybe things would be better if she joined. Then in the last episode, someone (maybe the pirate lady) will have their link unintentionally broken and just immediately start screaming and begging for her help. That will be the Season Finale cliffhanger.
