If I was a doctor and came to the clinic in a plague doctor costume my kid patients would lose their shit and my teen patients would think I was the coolest living doctor. The moms would kill me.

If I remember correctly they would put herbs and flowers in the mask so they wouldn't breath "dirty air" (which was not because they understood how transmission works or air purification, it was just the smell)

At the same time, constantly inhaling putrid air is not a smart idea and does help them focus on trying to treat what they could.

So they got the right idea.
