I wonder if it's because of so many covid exposure scares recently. I've been seeing so many articles on this site about some idol or other being tested and going into quarantine after being exposed to someone that tested positive and now there are even a few that are testing positive. While at the salon and performing they can't wear a mask or keep the necessary distance away from people. We don't know what the situation behind the scenes are either. The production crew are at risk too. If they were exposed to someone that tested positive, the whole crew could be in quarantine. There wouldn't be enough people to work on producing the show.
