![[Image: 24520244-7984385-image-a-17_1581289186740.jpg]](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2020/02/09/22/24520244-7984385-image-a-17_1581289186740.jpg)
An early example of the "clinical iceberg" described in the previous
article may have occurred in the form of a British man attending a
conference in Singapore from January 20-23.
He then visited a ski chalet in France in the French Alps, in Les
Contamines-Montjoie, near Megeve, from January 24 to 28, where he
infected at least seven other people.
Five Britons who shared the ski chalet with him were diagnosed over
the weekend, and hundreds of residents of the town are now undergoing
tests.
The "super-spreader" then returned to Briton on January 28, but during
the last five days, people in other sites in France and Spain who had
been visiting the same ski chalet have been diagnosed.
At least 40 cases of the virus have been confirmed in Singapore.
