Glad to hear we're getting at least a bit of normality back. Although I highly suspect a "2nd wave" will come in soon, but let's at least enjoy the few weeks/months we have ahead.

Casinos in Romania are open again AFAIK, but some owners placed physical mobile walls between machines that don't even allow them to communicate with each other anymore which is quite absurd.. Better than nothing anyway.

There would be sacrifices and we cant really expect for us to play in that full normal that we do get used to when we do play into these places.If there are adjustments made then that do normally connects about on the current pandemic situation.Owners are fully aware and im sure that before they do able to re-open up their business there are set of rules and regulations that need to be followed on.

2nd wave is likely to happen specially now where people are already going outside because most of countries now do lift that quarantine state. I do anticipate that numbers would really explode out on
next days, weeks or months.

Its really hard to control the virus as long the vaccine isnt available yet and this is why i wont still risk on going outside just for me to play.

the casino must reopen. I'm sure even though the casino keeps closing positive corona sufferers will continue to exist, I'm sure casino owners will definitely apply strict rules about masks and hand sanitizers when gamblers enter the casino

For me, it's okay for countries with a low number of COVID cases to reopen businesses

There are 1088 cases confirmed in Latvia with 781 recovered patients. In UK, there are 287K confirmed cases and 40K death rate.

Though it's still risky to reopen, they have to do it because it might be a beginning of an economic collapse if they won't agree to run businesses in the country. As we all know, government is depending in the tax and casinos are one of the main contributor of tax.

Looking upon the statistics, I amazed how Latvia handled the COVID-19. For me, it's better for them to open since the number of cases and recoveries doesn't have a long gap.

As life is in the process of normalization, we see that such businesses are starting to open. Although it is not right to open such businesses, these businesses should now operate. In addition, there is a fact that people can get infected in the market or in casinos. I think the probability of getting this virus in both environments is very close. For this reason, it should not be interpreted unilaterally that these businesses are operational again.

For me, it's okay for countries with a low number of COVID cases to reopen businesses such as land-based casinos cause I believe they can handle it when they reopen. Though I understand that countries can't stop everything for months because of the economy, but those who countries who are facing so much struggle with the pandemic, it will be such a big risk to reopen non-essential businesses.

If casinos really need to open their business and employees need to go to work, it's up to the gamblers if they want to risk their health just to gamble or not. Once they open casinos, no one will force them to gamble or not, so if it's okay for them to go to a land-based casino, they just need to be extra careful with the environment and people around them.

Latvia’s parliament has passed a bill which allows all legal casinos to begin their operations from 9th June, and with this bill they have ended the state emergency which was put in place to tackle covid19.

It’s pertinent to note that not all Latvian leaders were happy about this bill, and they submitted an updated bill to uphold the ban on land based casinos, but their bill was rejected by the parliament.

Also the UK government has given permission for casinos to resume their operations from 4th of July, and I hope both these countries don’t regret their decision, as it’s clear that they’re choosing money over people's life’s.

Lastly around 25 US states too have opened their casinos for their citizens, and this is scary and really sad because US is badly effected by Covid19, but yet they’re prioritising revenue over their citizens life’s.
