all this talk off , lockdown, this, lockdown,that,
if the Spring lockdown, resulted in the present increase in infections etc. please can someone explain to me how another lockdown, whether a long one, as some are proposing, or a short circuit breaker lockdown, compared to no lockdown, will kill off the virus, or reduce infections long term.

I think the home sanitising is a sort of human reaction to something they're afraid of; a way of controlling something that seems to be out of control. I do that by taking vitamins and continuing with theneverendingdiet. I'm pretty sure that the vitamins do work but, even so there is something reassuring about taking them.
