AND FINALLY ...Do you want to play the flute? Do you want to wear a face mask to stop the spread of COVID-19? One item we found on Amazon says it lets you do both — at the same time! 🎵 According to the product description, it comes with two layers of cotton to “reduce the spread of aerosols.” Basically, it's supposed to let you play the flute without removing the face covering. Got a trumpet instead? 🎺 There’s a mask for that, too. One thing’s for sure: No matter what life throws at us, Amazon sellers will always invent a handy solution! |
