There is no point of comparison between the risks of Gambling and Covid19. A person addicted to Gambling has how to rehabilitate himself in his brain disorder. With the help of the indications of a specialist, therapies, and their environment. Many proven techniques have been successful.
While Covid19 is an unknown virus, we still don't have a cure. Sadly, the world's leaders did not give due importance to how deadly it is.
Topic: Gambling and covid-19 : Which is more risky ? - page 3. (Read 654 times)
Well, people can lose lives in coronavirus but at the same time people might lose their money and become hand to mouth because of gambling.
So i would like to know your opinion, whether you think gambling is more dangerous or coronavirus is more dangerous for the people ?
They are both dangerous but virus is a lot dangerous compare to gambling especially if there is no vaccine yet and it will continue to spread for a very long time because everyone will be at risk compare to gambling that only addicted gamblers will be at risk in losing their money, so in gambling not everyone will be at risk. So i would like to know your opinion, whether you think gambling is more dangerous or coronavirus is more dangerous for the people ?
That is how I see the difference between the two, virus is very broad and was considered a pandemic because it affects all the country while threatening our lives if we will be infected with it. But in gambling, we still have chance to recover even if we are addicted to it so it is not that dangerous as it is not a life threatening.
But if you lost your life in this coronavirus (covid19), you lost everything, you can't get your money back, you can't do gambling anymore, you can't be in your family anymore.
Again, it's a dumb question.
I say that, the covid-19 is still much more dangerous because, it is an illness that can claim lives of a lot of people, not only yourself but, also the people around you are at risk. Unlike gambling, you are not in danger of dying and infecting a lot of people that might also cost their lives. Gambling cannot be compared to the pandemic because, gambling habits can be surely cured over time with proper guidance and persistence without affecting others.
This is the most dumbest question I've ever read in my life. Also I don't know how or when the covid-19 thread would stop. Seems like it is everywhere in the forum, looks so sketchy.
You know (or if not) that we can't see the virus and there's no cure about it as of now. It takes time to recover when you have the virus. In gambling, you will be the reason why yourself would end up being killed, not like in the virus.
It makes me cringed when I have read the subjects, the OP is compating the gambling into covid-19. The covid-19 is the reason why we have financial crisis today because lives of the people are on the line. I do not know why the creator of this thread have an idea to compare the gambling and the virus. Maybe he is one of the people who lose huge amount of money on it.

Ohh yeah, cringey. Should've been the best option is to lock the thread, as it's literally pointless.

Haha... interesting question
I would say covid 19 as you do not have any medicine or vaccine to cure this deadly disease. Untill one comes out this disease will kill you. Gambling still can be les harmful to anyone who does not have an addiction issue. I personally gamble once in a while and it is quite refreshing.
Therefor for me covid 19 is risky and not Gambling

You can't bring a died person to come alive no matter how much billions you are willing to spend, if covid affects you then you have chances to die so that is more risky,
But gambling has no harm as long as you are doing it in the right way, so no need to compare those.

What's been asked doesn't make sense. When one gets affected by corona his life ends in a short. People keeps recovering, still death is the one that makes it more fearful. When there is no life, what way one gambles. Even an addicted gambler will somehow stop gambling if he knows he's going to die out of gambling, because the control is within him.So i would like to know your opinion, whether you think gambling is more dangerous or coronavirus is more dangerous for the people ?
When it comes to the pandemic virus we can't do anything if it affects. Only thing that can be done is slow down the vigorous changes happening in the body. This shows corona is riskier than gambling at this time.
The comparison itself is baseless as I can't understand how you can compare an addiction to a pandemic! Though, gambling is much less risky than COVID-19 because it may be an addiction which can be dropped and you may stop doing it as well as stop losing your money, whereas COVID-19 is a totally different subject here where, if someone is infected and moves nearby you, you won't even know if the virus has already entered your body through that person which is highly a matter of concern. Something (COVID-19) that can't be tackled immediately just because you can't see it v/s gambling which can be left if we create such state of mind for ourselves, next to impossible to give a possible difference between these two. 
Just to add on where the chance of dying would be there once you get infected thats why i dont really see a reason why would these two should really be differentiated when it comes to risk.Yes, both have risk but when we do talk about viruses or any other health related things then its an another story and as long it do talks about dying or making a person too sick/ill
then theres no other thing which is more worst than that.Well, being poor due to gambling is unfortunate but our lives is more precious than on anything else.

100% corona virus, don't dare to go out if you are under quarantine because you are gambling with your health here.
When you lose in gambling, it's easy to recover but when you got infected with the corona virus, you are gambling with your life here as you could die.
That's the sad reality, so awareness is one key to ensure people will not take chances.

How many people are dying for gambling today and how many passed out for coronavirus? I don't think gambling kills just like covid does, you can't compare them, maybe gambling can destroy your life, but coronavirus is totally different.
CV is more dangerous for people, you can be sure of that.
No offense but this is a pretty stupid question. Gambling can lead to suicide but there's a way to stop it. If you catch the virus and your immunity system is downhill already, good luck stopping it from screwing around.
The virus may be a problem now, but it's not going to last forever. There will be a treatment for it indeed. Even if you lose money through gambling, there are ways to recover. If you're addicted, there are ways to stop it. It's not a health condition and your chances to start contemplating suicide don't increase if you have pre-existing health conditions.
Big, big difference between the two and literally no link between them... One is an addiction leading to suicidal thoughts, the other is a virus ..

Maybe just for the sake of discussion here. Since covid is a worldwide problem right now, and nothing much to discuss and debate with in gambling right now.
But for discussions sake, I think getting infected by the virus is a risky one especially if you have prior health issues. With gambling, you can always stop at anytime you want. With virus, you don't know if the the meds will stop your disease as there is no set of meds that have been identified as 100% effective. It depends on your health condition and how your body reacts to those meds. Well, people can lose lives in coronavirus but at the same time people might lose their money and become hand to mouth because of gambling.

If you understand both you will definitely not ask this kind of comparison.
Gambling addiction is a product of people's interest therefore it's human nature. On the other hand, the virus does have a life and everything will be infected on its path. Who's riskier? Who's dangerous? None of them because after all, they are different.
In gambling, we are dictating where we will go.
In the virus, we can't do anything.
Now, I will ask you, does this need to compare?
lol... this question is out of this world. 
Corona kills people, and when you gamble on it, you can't win, unlike when you gamble in casinos there is a chance that you'll win.
With corona, maybe your reward is to get out while you are in lock down, but you are gambling your health here, and the reward is not that attractive, so why gamble... This is kind of a funny question, but obviously corona is more risky as it even stop gambling house from operating.

is this serious?
because with all the respect it sounds like a joke.
gambling behavior is not contagious
and no, you can't die from gambling, you can die from becoming poor or something like that.
so, short answer is: yes, covid is more dangerous.
long answer is:
read about exponential curves and contagious diseases
This gambling and covid-19 epidemic should not be compared worse because so far the victims who died due to exposure to covid-19 from various countries have been very much so I think at least we all respect the people who are victims, of course covid- 19 became a more dangerous plague than gambling that didn't make people die.

Dont know what kind of question is this. Both things are dangerous but this one do differ in different aspects yet one is on health issue and one can mess up everything.So i would like to know your opinion, whether you think gambling is more dangerous or coronavirus is more dangerous for the people ?
The thing here is that Covid would really put up your life into risk or in short you can die with it but if your body do able to withstand such situation then you can recover
but all things would depend into your immune system.On the other hand in talks of gambling where it can mess up your financial aspect which can still be recovered
and wont risk up your life.So whats dangerous for you?? Losing your money an changed financial status or death because of the virus?
session was also away risky because if you lose money then you will not be able to have a piece of paper that will spend for your family and you will not be able to have something to eat,
because you lose in this gambling session.
