What About the Ears???
I have yet to hear a medical scientist address the EARS in any of their daily press briefings. Aren't the ears, nose, and throat connected? When people pass by you, you can easily feel and smell the breeze of their cologne, perfume, aftershave, or menthol lozenge that they just popped into their mouths. Any soft or strong wind can blow on exposed skin and into your ears on your way back through the parking lot to your vehicle. Anybody could've coughed or sneezed, suddenly and unexpectedly, and you just happen to be in the right path to receive the mist.
If I HAVE to take a trip anywhere--and most especially to the grocery store--I have started to stick a pinch of dry cotton ball into each ear, before I go outside. The small amount of cotton needed will be so lightweight, you won't even feel it. It will not interfere with your hearing. And, more importantly, it will act as a filter, and provide added protection from the coronavirus that seems to be floating aound, looking to attach itself to some place or someone. At least it would help to give you peace of mind.
I had recently heard that males were getting the Covid-19 more than females. Even with all the different hairdos we have nowadays, I think it's still safe to say that the majority of men keep their hair short--exposing their ears to the elements. Older ladies have a tendency to keep their locks short, too. And anybody that wears a ponytail or a bunhead would have to worry about exposing their ears, as well.
Anyway. This is what happens to me when I can't sleep, and as I wonder why this virus is working so fast. A pinch of cotton in each ear may help. Most healthcare I see on the news aren't covering their ears. Some have bonnets, but do they stay in place? I hate to hear that a helper did all the right things, yet they fell to the virus.
But were their ears plugged?

I quickly decided not to get potatoes and moved out of the produce section as fast as I could. As I pushed my cart away from the coughing employee I wondered if I was overreacting. Maybe I should go back and get some potatoes? Then I noticed the song that was playing on the store speakers. It was "Stayin' Alive":
