It is an allegedly frequent dream-trope to be in a situation of otherwise polite company and discover oneself naked in the midst of the crowd. This can added to something such as a general "forgotten to revise for the exam you're sitting" to build upon various levels of worst-case scenario anxieties amongst your peers, parents or other persons who will judge you badly for your faux pas.
In light of the current Coronavirus/CORVID-19 scare, the stated problem here is actually that of being in a crowd. In fact the nudity, perhaps similar to the actual real-life 'health tip' of eating excessive garlic, has the unintentional but beneficial effect of having neighbouring crowd-members stand back and out of your personal space out of shock and/or mutual embarrassment - which may somewhat mitigate some of the issues of viral transmission, if not others.
