Health officials are under pressure to release details of the movements of a British coronavirus "super-spreader", amid fears that the virus is far more contagious than was thought. However, health authorities have refused to provide any details of the man's movements during the five days he spent in the UK before showing symptoms. On Sunday (NZT) it emerged the man took the 6.50pm EasyJet flight from Geneva to Gatwick on January 28. The middle-aged man caught the virus at a conference in Singapore, before flying to the Alps for a four-day break with friends. He is understood to have displayed no symptoms at the resort of Les Contamines-Montjoie, where he infected seven people, including Bob Saynor, 48, an environmental consultant, and his nine-year-old son.
