Abstract
The last National Exhibition "EXPO 02" took place in Switzerland in 2002. More than 10 million people visited in within 159 days. The medical service and the "first aid" structures took pattern from other similar events in Switzerland or abroad. EXPO 02 was held on 4 sites. Our experience turned out interesting and somewhat different from the others sites because of the setting up of a "triage and coordination area" in the site of Neuchâtel.
