Have beauty brands let us down?

How much did you know about risk assessment and control of cross infection before March 2020? 

If the answer is 'not as much as I do now' why is that? 

In this short video I reflect on my learnings as a student of beauty and holistic therapies and wonder if I deserved to be taught more. Control of cross infection is fundamental to our practice and has been ingrained in us since day 1. We just haven't been told that it is. 

Our touch therapy training includes many control measures that allow us to work with the immunocompromised. 

I am aware that haven't labelled the control measures, I have taught the routines that include them but not been explicit about their purpose. Other brands have done (or not done) the same - should we have done more?
