None Of Your Business: Trade Fairs Abruptly Close In Wake Of Coronavirus Outbreak

More than two dozen large trade fairs and industry conferences in Asia have been postponed.

According to Reuters, the cancellations are in response to the spread of the China coronavirus.

The shuttered events have closed doors to billions of dollars worth of deals that would have been signed in the past.

The pushed back events show the ripple effect the virus is having on businesses globally.

Airlines are cancelling flights as governments and companies curb travel, and thousand of factories and shops remain shut.

The venue of China’s oldest and biggest trade fair, the Canton Fair, has suspended exhibitions until further notice.
