Let people be. For sure they are aware of how their health could be damaged by gambling environment in landbased casinos in particular with vices. There are also casinos wherein cigarettes as prohibited which leaves the argument open for options. Casinos are long existing and things won't change within one just because you are being conscious with your health while having the desire of gambling.

We're all free to engage on whatever platform it is whether it is landbased or online, crypto-based or fiat based. We do have preferences and that simply means we may choose a platform that will suit our preferences to make ourselves comfortable playing.

Crypto-based or fiat based isn't that important. Bitcoin is money, and the difference between BTC and USD is like between USD and British Pound. I mean, both are money and you can exchange them with one another. But if we to compare online casino to a land-based one, the difference is obvious. And health benefits of online gambling are not the only benefits online gambling has.

I think that is an unintelligent conclusion. Of course, many indoor activities like gaming or watching videos could also minimize infection risk.  However, the phrasing of health benefits is misleading given the actual content focused only on reduced contagion exposure from staying isolated rather than any advantages intrinsically tied to gambling itself.  Online gambling has no actual health benefits to speak of.
Science and medical personnel say that playing video games increases your thinking abilities and your overall reflexes, and since gambling also has games that require critical thinking, I believe it can be a benefit for a gambler if they play gambling games unless they take it too seriously and cause health issues for themselves. I'm also not sure if we can consider this a health benefit or not but it is at least some benefit that we get from playing games.

That being said, I do agree with what some other users said that gambling generally causes more problems than solving existing ones or providing extra benefits, especially if someone already has health issues such as a weak heart, painful eyes, and any other condition that might get severe at certain points when gambling.

but it might be a little unpleasant for gamblers who usually gamble in physical casinos, because the vibe of online gambling is very lacking since they play alone in their room and they can't feel the real casino atmosphere, but if they are thinking about recovery then online casinos is their best place to gamble.
Online gamblers may play by themselves in their rooms, it's true, but I believe there are a variety of factors that combine to make for an interesting and immersive experience with a distinct ambiance. In my opinion, players can have an immersive gaming experience that closely mimics the atmosphere of a physical casino thanks to the significant advancements made by online gambling platforms in recreating the excitement and ambiance of a real casino through the use of realistic sound effects, high-quality graphics, and interactive features.
~snip~
 

but it is quite difficult to be able to imitate the vibe of a physical casino, the smell, the noise of people playing, the jokes with the dealer, and various other things. Things like this cannot be imitated by online gambling no matter how sophisticated the gambling platform is. and for this reason it is still difficult for people to move on from physical casinos, even though they are given easy access to online gambling platforms.

Of course, because online casinos also have their own advantages that distinguish them from physical casinos and the things you mentioned are something that is a significant difference between physical and online casinos, the point is that because the times are getting more modern and more sophisticated, some industries create something that is in accordance with what people need to make as an option for a balance, And the purpose of the establishment of online casinos is none other than this to reach more gamblers, especially those who don't really like physical casinos, such as those who are introverts or who don't like crowds, they can join and get involved in online casinos with the advantage of being able to engage in gambling whenever and wherever they want. So the bottom line is all of this is a choice, if indeed people want to feel the sensation of a lively atmosphere with crowds then obviously they can go to online casinos and as I said above if indeed they do not like the crowded atmosphere then obviously online casinos are the choice.

Betting with online gambling firms will shield you from contracting communicable diseases because you are all alone in a comfortable atmosphere. My neighbor's behavior has made me focus only on crypto casinos because I am scared of my health. Don't get me wrong there are many well-built and very comfortable physical casinos that offer quality services, but when you are an online gambler you will not need to worry about the health concerns of fellow gamblers.

I find this funny but at the same time, you nailed some points. Some diseases are transferable from one person to another but don't you think that's a less problem to gambling considering that people don't waste much time in gambling platforms. Like the physical gambling places that we have here, people do sports mostly and Africa at large and because some don't have access to phone or because they can't use phone, they go there book there games and come home, they only go back there to check and cashout when they win.

The only place I think this will be spread mostly is in casino and that I know isn't common here in my place. Aside from the things you mentioned, online gambling provides you with high level of privacy. You can win millions within a night and if you don't tell anyone that you have become a millionaire, they wouldn't know nothing but if it was physical, they will announce you to the public with a big check and probably use your winning for some marketing and advertisements which is bad.

I don't think I will visit a casino just to have a one on one contact with people. I'm an introverted by nature and I hardly engage with people, so I don't think this is really an issue but in general, it's a big problem but when someone is having a communicable diseases, it's always obvious that the signs are always visible for everyone to see. That Tuberculosis has a cough symptoms and I believe if the people over there care about there health, they will caution the person.

Corona virus has thought me a lesson not to visit crowdy environment, even banks I don't go such places. In this century, your phone is enough to do any type of gambling you want to and play, this is not like in the 80s where you have to walk down some mile to gamble or visit a hub of gambling.

If it's like that, it's not gambling that causes illness. but the environment in the gambling place is bad that causes illness. when gambling offline many people smoke and if in a small room with less air ventilation, it causes respiratory diseases including tuberculosis.
If you are addicted to gambling, of course, if you participate in offline land-based gambling, then in all these places, alcohol, opium, cigarettes, etc. are consumed, then the environment is not healthy at all. But to participate in online gambling, there is no opportunity for everyone to be together in one place, so there is no chance of contaminating the environment in online gambling. For those who are infected with the contaminant disease, they must refrain from participating in offline gambling, otherwise this contaminant will spread to other people.

My neighbor has tuberculosis and from the information I gathered from a reliable source, his case is so severe. He is at the lung cavitation stage of the disease and he has been advised to avoid overcrowded environments for his health and the safety of others. But my neighbor who is a responsible gambler will always visit physical betting shops. Some physical gambling shops in my area are poorly ventilated and they could be overcrowded and stuffy. Sometimes you could see that he is struggling to remain in the casino shop and such cases he would be coughing heavily. I have told him to focus on online gambling but he told me that he is more entertained in physical bet shops.

OP, your thread title seems very misleading. I thought that you will be writing about any actual health benefits of gambling. Grin
Staying indoors and playing online gambling will prevent you from getting infected? Is this the "health benefit" you are writing about?
If that's the case, playing video games has the same "health benefit"? What about watching online porn, instead of going outside and getting infected?  Grin
Your neighbor seems to be very irresponsible to his own health and the health of other people. Maybe that's why I always avoid offline gambling as well. Some idiot might be spreading infections left and right in the casino.
For me, his post and title is fine even though he is not the ones that has a health problem. Maybe you are just expecting too much that it was the OP? that is why Cheesy. Also you are expecting for a different health benefits of gambling. But, what he wrote is understandable and it was another example of it.

What you wrote there is also correct. And that is what he was trying to say there. The point is to stay indoors. Not only that we will be safe, but others too if we have a deadly and highly infectious disease like his neighbour. It's also important for an establishment to check the condition of their customers first, if they can enter or not. It can look inappropriate to some but it's actually a good practice.

Television, mobile phones, social media sites, video games are laughing next door, Lol  Grin. I think this is just an excuse because that person is addicted to gambling. If he really needs to be at home he could just do other things like those above. Why always gambling has to be the only source of entertainment? And about health benefits, I think it has none except it helps one to relieve them of their stress, relax a bit, entertain a little.

~Snip
If it has become a habit and the place is his favorite place to gamble, it is natural for him to insist on continuing to gamble there, even though he is sick. Because gambling online and gambling in the real world (offline) do have differences in terms of enjoyment. Because if you gamble offline, of course in that place you will meet your friends, laugh together and eat and drink together. So there is definitely a very strong sense of togetherness when gambling offline.
But if are in a sick position like your friend, then it is not recommended to gamble in a crowd. Moreover, your friend has a disease that can be contagious, this will certainly endanger himself and other people if your friend is stubborn about gambling offline (in crowded places).

So the right solution for your friend is, in essence, just have to gamble online. Because instead of endangering yourself and others, it is better to stay at home until your friend illness is completely cured. Because playing gambling online is no less exciting. In fact, currently there are many interesting game choices on online gambling sites that can play, so the point is that won't get bored quickly. Maybe the downside is just not having anyone to chat with, but I'm sure this can be overcome if find a game on a gambling site that is really exciting. Therefore, try offering your friends a very interesting gambling site. Who knows, your friend has never tried online gambling, so he thinks that online gambling is very boring, even though in reality it isn't. Because it would be very worrying if your friend gambled in a crowded place, even though his body was sick.

I hear your worries about your neighbor. Totally get why gambling online might seem like a good idea to avoid germs and stay entertained while sick. But let's be real, hitting the virtual slots isn't exactly a health spa day. Sure, it keeps him away from catching something nasty, but those online casinos are more interested in his wallet than his well-being.

Look, health gotta be number one, right? Risking his health for a shot at some jackpot just ain't worth it. He's bored and wants a distraction, I feel that. But there are tons of ways to entertain himself without leaving the house or risking his health.

The key is to get his priorities straight and take this health stuff seriously. It's not about judging him, but helping him find ways to feel good without gambling. You could even suggest some fun alternatives that match his interests. Maybe cooking a virtual meal together, watching a show you both like, or even starting a virtual book club.

This isn't a health benefit of online gambling, the guy in question has health problems and its understandable that its his doctor's advise not to engage in crowded places. Physical casinos have an advantage of interaction while gambling. For  some people that I've been opportune to meet in the physical casino, the discussions and communism experience keeps them happy as compared to when they're alone.

Some people are really lonely and they only get that companionship when they come out in the open and interact with people. Your friend has a very contagious and terminal illness and he should consider the life of others which he puts at  stake daily while visiting physical casinos and try online casinos for his gambling satisfaction.

Thank God Covid19 is behind us now, for those saying that some people don't even know how to operate a smartphone or get online, like older people, how did they survive the lock down period? They must have been able to beat gambling addiction then if they sit at home and can't gamble for several months.

I haven't witness someone contacting a viral disease in a casino before but it's possible, Covid was one of the most effective virus that easily get spread in a crowded location, it would have been a disaster if people in a casino came in contact with someone who has the virus.

I know that offline casinos have it's advantages too but the disadvantages are high in number compare to a online casino, and the biggest threat is people in the casino with knowing you just hit a jackpot or a fight break out in the casino, the privacy of online gambling is unmatched.

Physical gambling has many health disadvantages as there will be alot of individual present in the gambling rooms and they'll have different diseases. Some can be transmitted to others from touch or when they cough. Regardless of how they sanitize the rooms, diseases can still be contacted by gamblers. Airborne diseases will be the easiest ones to be transferred from a sick individuals to healthy individuals. There are other types of diseases that can also be gotten from physical touch.
Everything that you described can happen in any public place, in a store, on public transport, in a cinema, anywhere, but this does not mean that we should not leave the house so as not to expose ourselves to some dangers. If you are so worried about your health, then take care of a healthy lifestyle so that your immunity was strong, and can cope with what you are so afraid of. Some people prefer to play in a casino, others prefer to play at home online, it’s just a matter of choice.

Exactly, when you are too scared and too worried about your health then obviously it means that we are not only forbidden to go to physical casinos but this also concerns some other places that we might always go to, and what if the situation is that we are shopkeepers who will basically have a lot of people coming to our shop to buy something they need? Of course this cannot always be avoided and that does not mean we should ignore prevention because it is always a good thing if it leads to a good thing, but on the other hand there are still other ways that can help us avoid some infectious diseases, and one of them may be as you suggest by maintaining a healthy lifestyle to increase immunity so as not to easily contract various diseases that are worried about. So with this I think it is not a good reason if you refuse to go to a physical casino with the idea of "fear of contracting diseases" because the things you are worried about are very likely to happen in various other places you visit, and the point is of course in the end physical or online casinos are a choice.

Yes online gambling will be very healthy for this person. As he is a tuberculosis patient he needs to be in a clean environment all the time as you say physical gambling is not a very good environment all the time dust is good dirt then online gambling will be effective for this person. But at first he will feel bad because this person always gambles in big crowd and is always happy but online gambling has to be played alone due to which he will be very restless at first and will not like it. But after trying it for a day or two, he will definitely like it. If you give him such advice I would say not bad advice but definitely good advice for him. But it would be better if you advise him to quit gambling.
Using an online casino, at least he can stay home to gamble and doesn't have to go anywhere. This is also an advantage for him because he is a tuberculosis patient who must always be in a clean environment. He can gamble at home even though it may not make him comfortable the first time, but he will feel a different pleasure from gambling in a physical casino. He just needs to try it to see and feel the difference, and he can also use a crypto casino if he wants something different. After playing gambling for a while, he will see that playing online gambling can be a solution to being able to continue gambling where he can still be in his room or even in his backyard while enjoying snacks.

Online casinos are better for health concerns as you don't have to get in contact with any random individual that's there to gamble. You'll be in your home and gamble for many hours without being afraid of contacting any diseases unless your family or close friends comes around and they're infected. But it won't count as they would have still come around regardless of if you're gambling or not.

To be honest, I don’t understand why physical casinos are needed at all. It's high time to move everything online. Perhaps some extroverts need such forms to socialize, but, as for me, the online form of betting institutions is the most comfortable. And a person suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis, especially at the stage of formation of cavities in the lungs, will actually be more comfortable having fun at home. As do most other people.
     It may only make sense for some betting companies whose offices are located next to sports bars to have a physical premises. This can still be understood. But in general, physical fitness has long been inferior to online casinos in the same way as for a long time, for example, trading has become a predominantly online activity.
It's completely wrong if you think physical casinos aren't need at all.

People gamble on online casinos are mostly to make money, while some of them gamble because they're anti social or very introvert person.

In physical casinos, you're not only gambling, but you can make a friend and it will increase your network, as we know your network is your networth. You're not entirely want to gamble, but you know rich people are mostly in casinos, night clubs or rich sports.

There are some humans that are not bothered or concerned about others order than themselves with what interest or amuses them. A warning advise has being given not to attend to a crowded place not just for his own but for the sake of other people but he chooses the so-called fun and entertainment he claims to derive over the health of other people when there is an alternative for him to gamble online.

It is for concerns as this that I am very careful with the type of places I go for my on land gambling. I make sure to observe the quality and character of people that do make use of that very bet shop/house and the ventilation rate. While we gamble we should make sure to priotize our wellbeing based on where we go to carry out our gambling activity.

A word of advise, as a gambler and you know you are not feeling well, for the sake of you and others be humane enough to stay home and get sufficient medication for yourself, for when you're well gambling can still go on. Health is wealth.
