LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — CONEXPO is being held at the Las Vegas Convention Center this week, which is expecting up to 130,000 attendees. Amid coronavirus fears, the expo's organizers are taking some extra steps to keep it's staff and visitors safe.

On the event's website, organizers say they'll have a medical staff on site and will have five screening stations. If someone presents symptoms of COVID-19, they'll be taken to Sunrise Hospital via ambulance.

CONEXPO says some major exhibitors have canceled their attendance, but even with cancellations they'll still have about 75% of exhibit space filled. You can read their full statement on the matter here.
