Remaining virus treatment very good around home (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

surviving

'remaining' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'virus treatment very good around home' is the wordplay.
'treatment' indicates anagramming the letters.
'very good' becomes 'VG' (abbreviation).
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'virus' is an anagram of 'survi'.
'survi'+'vg'='survivg'
'survivg' enclosing 'in' is 'SURVIVING'.
