In the meantime, we should avoid visiting sports sites.
No one will allow you to visit sporting events if you don't have any permission or you don't have to do something important within the area. Only authorized people will be allowed to be present on those events for streaming purposes and other staffs that will be working for the management.
So as a typical fan, I doubt it that there will be people who will be allowed by a management or even close to the team that will play.

It has to be organized that way as expected social distancing must be to minimize the spread.

UFC fighter Burns was tested positive just recently. He was supposed to fight for the main event but it will be postponed. It should worry Dana now for all the sparing partners and the team who mingled elbow to elbow with them.  The virus had probably infected more UFC fighters already.
It is still very dangerous and we know that the virus does not choose who it will target. Even if you say you are healthy and no symptoms appear to you but you do not know that you are a carrier, you can, still infect someone else. And what if you come in contact with a weakened immune system, that's when it starts to spread again.
Just like wrestling, it can't be too tight or cluttered, so closed contact can't be avoided. So it is no wonder that the next fights will be suspended due to the case.

We hope to continue the vaccine using german technology and be successful.

Each test performed must be accurate for the participants of the game as well as those involved in the event. They should also avoid going to or visiting places where there is a critical or confirmed case. So they have to stay in their home court first and the only league they can do now. Here we are, again with new cases due to travel authorization and also because of irresponsible people.

In such events for the players there should be schedule like after the game or event is done for the day they should just be in their hotel rooms.

Lunch/Dinner etc it would be served in their rooms so that they do not have to come down and just avoid meeting as less number of people or spots for their safety and also for others.
Players would not be allowed to meet to any fans or the family members for the time being should not be included. I assume this would already be in place.
Press conference can be conduced virtually for the time being.

Despite the effects of the coronavirus on gambling everything is set to resume soon However, the impact of online gambling has increased due to the virus In the meantime, we should avoid visiting sports sites. If everything returns to normal we will be able to re-inspect the field and bet It is safest to stay at home during this epidemic But those who love gambling are more inclined towards online gambling than sitting at home.

Sports events are starting to resume again after months of lockdown, so does sports betting. It may be different from the normal events we are used to, but it's still good that some organizers are now trying to prepare for sports events. The pandemic may have affected sports betting but since we're now at the restarting phase, we can slowly see sports betting again. Following protocols are always there since we now have to practice new normal.

Well, it's really an opportunity for online casinos since most gamblers were left with no choice but to gamble online.

That's true. The gamblers will have the opportunity to place the bets in the sports games, and they will be happy to see their teams are in the match again. Sports events need to have the protocols in this pandemic, and the organizers should concern about the sports players before they play the games.

The online sports betting will try to attract the gamblers to visit on their site, and perhaps, the sports betting site will use another bonus to invite those gamblers and remind them that the site still online after the pandemic. I think sooner or later, and the sports betting site will have the income after they cannot make money from the sports industry.

It is a guess based on some analysis, usually when one bookmaker states one team to be favourite or one boxer to be favourite then usually others follow suit (and so on). I wish I had statistics to back this up but as of now I have none.

Did you check this or is this your guess? There were times when I tested the effects of probability theory on bookmakers and carefully studied bets. To my surprise, almost all the odds were almost the same (except for minor differences).

It seems to me, even without statistics, it can be assumed that the odds have minimal differences from the bookmaker to the bookmaker. If it were otherwise, then betters would easily make money by looking for the most profitable odds for all the outcomes of the same match in different bookmakers. As a result, they would always make win-win bets and gradually ruin the bookmakers.

I am also glad that in many countries once again started to allow the conduct of sports matches.
Yep, sports matches have resumed in many countries in the world. This is good news for both sports betting players and sports gambling sites. Now, they can work again as usual even starting with only a few matches. Gradually, I think all sports matches will be back as usual. Well, after waiting for a long time sports gambling, finally we can start again to play.

This will show people that they need to stop being afraid and get used to living the same life.
Yes, we mustn't be so afraid and try to face reality. We cannot stay forever at home and no activities outside. What we must change is our habit and be always careful about every activity outside.

Agree, those who will participate in any sports event should be tracked and prohibits going to any places that have a lot of confirmed cases.

It's a hard process, after the sports tournament, they should be monitored for 1 week or more so if they become positive on COVID-19, there will be a fast action and to those who got contact with the person.
Mass testing should be implemented to all of those people who're involved in the event which are athletes, staff, and many more.

I hope people manage to stay away from gambling addiction during the lock downs no matter which country they reside in.
Unfortunately it seems all kind of addictions are going up during this pandemic, addiction to drugs, gambling, pornography, the Internet, video games, smart phones and whatever you can imagine as people are trying to find ways to deal with the pandemic and its consequences, I hoped for things to be different but it seems this pandemic is going to have very long lasting effects even on those that never contract the virus.

Most likely this has to do with the Terror management theory in which people realize their mortality and how really limited is their time despite any precautions they may take and how they try to find something to cope with it, and they are finding in all of those behaviours a way to deal with the stress.

There are already some sports had already resumed out which you would able to make up some bets and i have seen one in boxing or even in football.

When in talks about online gambling and yes, theres a significant rise up but not really that much imho(this is my own view). When it comes to e-sports,

well these things is always there since it can be done via online neither via remote or into a venue place.It doesnt matter because it can be done without

much that supervision.

The sports game is already resumed, and I see that can be a starting point for every sports game to come back after they cancel all of the tournaments or events. This time will be different than before, and they must follow what it needs and follow the government's protocols before other people get infected.

Online gambling will be the one that takes advantage of the Covid-19 because people who want to playing gambling will try to search the gambling website, and they will try to play the gambling games until the gambler can back to place their bet in the sports games.

Slowly and slowly as more and more sports events start taking place, betting will increase. There are many people that place bets on sports events without evening having an interest in that particular sport as odds are available for many aspects of the game (goals scored, sent off, total corners etc).

I am worried about the impact the lock down has had on vulnerable people that might have started gambling and turned it in to an addiction.

I am also glad that in many countries once again started to allow the conduct of sports matches. This will show people that they need to stop being afraid and get used to living the same life.
Don't worry about dependent people. They never stopped playing. Some of them played in online casinos, others played in illegal casinos.

It's what I'm waiting, sports will resume then I would also resume betting.
This month we will witness the resumption of the NBA, that should be a big thing for the million of fans and millions of bettors worldwide. Also, it's gonna generate money not only for businesses but for the economy so they should resume even if they have to play without a crowd.

That would be a disaster. People are actually having a hard time to survive the first wave, how much more if we will be having the second wave. Some people thought that what we have right now is the second wave but as far as I know, we are still in the first wave, that is why I hope 2nd wave doesn't happen anymore. Though medical personnel should be ready for this does or it doesn't happen. That would also mean more delays and cancellations of games again.
Anyway, the NBA will be resuming soon and I can't wait for it to bet on my favorite teams.
Unfortunately, there are some players who tested positive these past few days. Some of them are in Brooklyn and some are in Indiana. Don't know the rest of the players who are tested positive but this may affect the performance of the team and the league as a whole.

The resume of the NBA is 30 days away and many players can get affected still. There are some who choose not to play anymore since it is not necessary that they will play (optional) and they will not get punished. If more and more players will be tested positive within these time frame, I'm afraid that they will decide to just stop the whole season totally.

This is what I've been thinking too. Its just so hard to play with this virus. I hope all of them are tested correctly, there is no room for error when the season starts. I'm scared some of them will not know they have the virus then continue to interact with other players and staff, it will make the season be cancelled too. I just hope all are tested correctly, and the safety precautions be as effective as possible. I'm scared and excited at the same time.

Apart from sports betting such as on football, cricket, rugby, boxing, etc and the regular online casino type of websites - what other forms of gambling do you think people have participating in?
Well, almost all sports betting now has been postponed or rescheduled because of the COVID 19 situation. Here is my guide of sports event [ https://www.bbc.com/sport/50765073 ]. How about the e-sports and like Fortnite the most trending sports and games on the internet and perhaps most likely on the bookmaker's sites.

COVID 19 has a huge impact on all sports events and perhaps gamblers may be switched to online gambling or even in the e-ports games betting.

I think all the matches are treated like that because we don't want the spread to continue and we as big sports fans will certainly take advantage of virtual online as they watch the game. I think this will become a habit if we continue.

My area also applies the same thing so whatever we have to enjoy to watch it and believe me it will return to normal after everything has recovered we will be free to go see the match.

Even the American Got talent has no audience when I watched it earlier I think every show and the game match will have this kind of setting since the pandemic still ongoing. I'm fine with this since we have lots of sources to watch some sport matches and game shows. You're right after everything is fine, we can watch every match we want and go to the cinemas too.

In Belgium casinos and cinemas opened yesterday but offcourse the amount of people is limited. In august, the new football season will start but at this point all matches will be played without audience.
Many of the establishments opened right now with the implementation of social distancing when entering. But I guess it is still not safe unless your country is a COVID-free already and have a vaccine. It's better to bet on online casinos and just stay at home and watch movies on Netflix. There's a bunch of things we can do on the Internet right now. So I'll not bet my life just to have fun and watch movies, I rather go home and watch on streaming platforms/
