The professional seeing many clients a day will have to own a clean and freshly laundered bio-protection suit to be changed with each client.
This is a beekeeper's suit and it was the closest image I could find to what professionals would look like in a world with COVID-19.
I just don't believe 63 testing kits released in one day by the federal government were thoroughly tested for safety and accuracy. Until there is higher confidence in the ability and accessibility of tests, this is the way the future is going to look.
I see this same type of UNIFORM for people working in meat processing plants. There is always vegetable protein for a country mired in disease, too.
But, for the public at large to move about freely, I see something like this in use. A launderable cotton suit with a hood or mask that will protect the wearer and others.
It is my understanding that double-layered cotton is the best fabric to use when purchasing a non-N95 mask. This is not an endorsement, simply an example.
Our GOTS® organic certified reusable Face Masks (click here)are made with two layers of 100% organic cotton canvas and two simple tie straps. They do not use elastic or plastic. They are not particulate filtering N95 medical masks, but will provide protection and help inhibit the transmission of Covid-19. Limit 1 pack per household. Non-refundable. Our family pack comes with 4 adult and 4 children's masks. Current production time is 10 to 15 business days, plus additional 1-4 days shipping.
Buddism requires a person to be "mindful" of their surroundings and their actions. I recommend Americans slow down and be mindful of their movements and exposure. It may become second nature to everyone in time. But, a rushed and hurried life can also be a careless one, whereby we were used to being carefree. We are no longer carefree, but, careful.

While mindfulness (click here) can be practiced quite well without Buddhism, Buddhism cannot be practiced without mindfulness. In its Buddhist context, mindfulness meditation has three overarching purposes: knowing the mind; training the mind; and freeing the mind.
This is a new skill set that only is to be used when necessary.
