[CoverMeCagney]

Wikipedia has a good, up-t0-date table of UK cases showing the date, region and source of each infected person, plus the number of tests. Looking at it, it seems we've had a bigger jump in numbers today. I had better go and catch up.

Warning! Stupid question ahead!
I’m wondering how you would go about disinfecting your home once someone in it has recovered from coronavirus?

Hire a company to deep/disinfect clean?
