Chinese brand Vivo became the latest smartphone brand to withdraw participation from the upcoming Mobile World Congress 2020 tech show. The reason behind Vivo pulling at the last minute is Coronavirus. Already, smartphone brands like Sony, LG and other companies like Intel, NTT DoCoMo and Ericsson withdraw their participation from MWC. The Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (NCP) outbreak has put the entire MWC show in jeopardy as the companies feel it’s insecure to host their events in the current scenario. As of this reporting, more than 1,000 people died in China due to the virus and more than 40,000 cases have been reported. The virus is spreading across the globe at a rapid pace and even four cases have been reported in the UK.
