I read that people are allowed to move house during lockdown but what is the current protocol for a new lodger?
I let two rooms in my house. One lodger moved out a week into lockdown and the room has been empty since then. Now a man leaving a bad marriage has asked to move in. He would share the bathroom, kitchen and dining room with us. He is in a manual trade and has been employed all through lockdown.
We have had no visitors since lockdown started.
Is he allowed to move in? If so, how can we know he is not an asymptomatic carrier? Would we be insane to let him move in, or do we just need to take precautions like disinfecting everything he touches for two weeks? Or for as long as any CV precautions are in place? Am I being over-cautious?
We live in an area that has one of the lowest rates of CV by the way.
