Vaccine verification at major venues emerged
Tuesday as a coronavirus fighting front
in Nevada, with Las Vegas’ biggest trade
conference following the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders
in announcing they’ll require attendees to prove
they’re inoculated.
The Consumer Technology Association, sponsor
of the CES gadget show, said it will require
attendees in January to be vaccinated to enter
venues including the expanded Las Vegas
Convention Center, Mandalay Bay and Sands
Expo center.
“We understand vaccines offer us the best hope
for stopping the spread of COVID-19,” Gary
Shapiro, association president and CEO, said in a
statement. “We are taking on our responsibility
by requiring proof of vaccination to attend CES
2022 in Las Vegas.”GADGET SHOW
