How Can I Tell the Difference Between the Coronavirus, the Flu, a Cold or Seasonal Allergies?
Standards, third party certification, labels you can trust….why do they matter?
As more and more countries are infected by coronavirus, we can learn from the experiences of others first affected, both from their successful actions and their failures. We can put measures and processes in place to help us stay safe. By learning from our mistakes we can set guidelines and protocols. One thing this health crisis has highlighted is the need and importance of such safety measures. In particular, standards, trusted labels and third party certification.
