Seems like sensationalizing the fearful responses of people who are already disconnected from reality and normal people. If you have the cash to throw around, I guess you'd pick the best unless you got to be rich by being super cheap.

If you were in the thick of a pandemic and had to go out: indirect vent ski goggles + anti-fog compound, a tight-fitting N95 NIOSH mask that has enough surface area to not get too humid, soap-&-water hand washing, 70% hand sanitizer, and surface sanitization seems good enough for nearly every pathogen.

Even before this, there's a coffee shop I goto sometimes where they never clean anything but they always have a giant container of hand sanitizer; the trick is about 8 pumps of that on a bunch of napkins and wipe down the table, seats and seat backs. (I'm OCD.)
