People doused themselves.

This was before the buses stopped running. An article had come out saying cinnamon oil killed the virus and now people doused themselves. The bus smelled happy, like a kitchen full of French toast. A man a few seats up kept nodding, jerking awake, mask drooping. The woman behind him screamed. “He’s got it!”



1.People doused themselves.

I have no idea what the writer is trying to convey.

2.“He’s got it!”

Does the above sentence mean the man has stolen sth?
