"Wheel of Fortune" and "Jeopardy" have announced that they will suspend taping in front of a live studio audience.
A source close to the show told CNN that the decision has been made in response to the coronavirus outbreak.
The decision marks the entertainment business's latest response to the pandemic.
Movie premieres, concerts, and high profile events have all been canceled in recent weeks.
Experts warn that the elderly and those with underlying health conditions have a higher risk of death from the virus.
73-year-old "Wheel of Fortune" host Pat Sajak, recently underwent emergency surgery for an intestinal blockage.
79-year-old "Jeopardy" host Alex Trebek, is battling pancreatic cancer.
