carefully and with full awareness
without realizing or knowing
slowly and cautiously
intentionally and on purpose

Explanation:

The word "unwittingly" is an adverb. The prefix "un - " often indicates negation. "Witting" means knowing. So "unwittingly" means without knowing. In the context, since the droplets are microscopic (can't be seen), it makes sense that someone would inhale them without realizing (without knowing).

Answer:

Without realizing or knowing.
