Most here (including me) are well past doing the mask thing. Pretty well confirmed that masks do not help against the virus. HOWEVER my wife is very sensitive to pollen and the allergies really mess with her sinuses and throat. As a singer, this is doubly bad. So she wears a mask outside and has far fewer symptoms. Please do not assume that she is a Karen - she needs the mask so she can avoid the allergens.

Well, hey, every professional needs to take care of their tools. But cello players have trouble on airlines and buses, for entirely different reasons. I'm sure there are waves in public perception about everything, and for now she'll have to deal with many people having a false impression of her.
That said, allergen therapy is pretty well proven, although it takes time. So she can build up her immunity. Good luck to both of you!
