Customers of a central Sydney beauty clinic have been urged to test for hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV after the discovery of “highly concerning” infection-control practices, including the use of veterinary equipment, at the business.
The New South Wales Health Care Complaints Commission (HCCC) on Monday released a public health warning about the Ketthip Beauty Clinic on Sussex Street and imposed an interim prohibition order, preventing the clinic from providing health services of any kind for a period of eight weeks.
