To curb the spread of the virus, people who will deliver awards will be donning some dapper-looking Emmy tuxedo hazmat suit.''Actual hazmat suit was created and designed by costume designer Katja Cahill and executive producer Guy Carrington, who worked with a hazmat manufacturer to create them for the show,'' sources state.

''Not only is this a fun and irreverent visual, but it also ensures the health and safety of all of our winners and the presenter by following all of the health and safety protocols — with a twist, '' said one of the producers.
