High cleaning standards and a focus on health and safety have effectively eradicated Norovirus outbreaks at Merton Council Schools for seven consecutive years, according to an article on the Cleanzine website.
After several years Norovirus outbreaks, the school council of the London borough of Merton launched a rigorous tender process to find a cleaning contractor that could help eliminate the chronic issue.
