Hygiene Tribune U.S. Edition

Hygiene Tribune U.S. Edition | May 2013B2 support for the City of Boston.” The MCCA press release went on to say that after some uncertainty following the April 15, bombings the Ambulatory Sur- gery Center Association’s Annual Meeting began the following Wednesday as sched- uled. On Friday, April 19, attendees – most of whom were staying in hotels connect- ed to the convention center via walkways from the Prudential Center and Copley Place — were in the Hynes for sessions starting at 7 a.m. In accordance with the shelter-in-place order from the Governor, attendees stayed at the Hynes and contin- ued with event activity as scheduled. Friday April 19 was a scheduled arrival day for nearly 15,000 attendees of the Ex- perimental Biology 2013 Annual Meeting, as well as a heavy move-in day for exhibi- tors. Move-in activity began early in the morning, prior to the shelter-in-place or- der being extended to the entire city, so contracted labor and exhibitors already on site were allowed to continue moving as planned. On-site registration was tem- porarily delayed, but attendees were able to register at satellite hotels, including the Westin Boston Waterfront and the Renais- sance Boston Waterfront. On Saturday, April 20, the event opened as planned. Following the week’s events, MCCA rep- resentatives said that customers, staff, attendees and exhibitors should expect heightened security throughout the city and particularly around public transpor- tation and entrances to hotels and the convention centers.
