From my point of view, maybe the reasons why Las Vegas Casinos have started to open, so they could save their business or to help their workers to have a source of income again. But it is still inappropriate for Las Vegas Casinos to reopen because it could cause more trouble if more people will get infected by the virus.

The recent places we have heard ease the lockdown came back and suffer a great loss because of going against the government instructions. The right thing should be done as pointed out by many to avoid the plaque of second wave. Though those actions seem right to the business owners and their employees but not minding the repercussions that will follow after. In my opinion, life is worth than giving the whole golds and silvers without enjoy any. Covid-19 is real and we should "stay home and stay safe".

I think it's right that Las Vegas Casinos should be reopened soon, because we have been living in quarantine for too long. If like that
continue, the economy can be increasingly destroyed. Because Las Vegas Casinos employees need salary to buy food, even to my
knowledge tax from casinos big enough. So if opened can provide tax income for the United States.

Most casinos are already really open.  
Of course, the economy is suffering, but casinos are primarily entertainment without which people can do.  
The staff only performs a service function.  Much more important: Keeping people safe with the redistribution of the virus.

It's an entertainment business but it's a big industry, though there is a pandemic but gamblers are still ready to risk going into the casino to play, and while the casino are making millions or billions of dollars, that would be a big contribution to the economy as they are going to pay taxes based on the income they derive from their operation.

Any kind of business as long as it's earning and paying taxes to the government, they all contribute to the economy and the government now needed them so they decided to open the businesses to save the economy of this uncertain situation we are at now.


Casino receives income, where from? From your customers.
From whom does the state receive income? From their citizens.
Who are the casino customers? Citizens.

Thus, to one degree or another, the state evenly receives taxes from those people who lose in the casino through the taxes that the casino pays to the state.
However, in this situation, the individual himself over time becomes less capable of making money, which means his solvency to the state becomes less.

Is it profitable for the state? More likely no than yes.

I guess we all knew that Las Vegas casinos were planning to open soon, but how many of you’ll actually thought that they would be opening it so soon? because I’m shocked that they have opened it as the number of corona cases are rising only.

Furthermore flights to Las Vegas are already full, and people are coming in large numbers to play out there, hence I’m sincerely praying that no one gets infected while playing out there.

Though they have set up various safety measures, but I’m not sure what their protocol will be if it’s found that an infected person played out there, will they be forced to shut down their casinos, or will it be business as usual for them?.

Las Vegas really need to operate because they have been losing so much money about stop operation.

And besides they can protect their players from this Virus so i dont see any reason why they need to be banned still.

Now there are other countries that consider operation as well.

Like UK and some Asian countries and also i heard that some part of european countries as well.

Lets fight the virus but not killing our economy.

I think it is not equivalent to compare people who infect others with HIV and coronavirus

Well, I'm not sure that you read my post carefully enough

To repeat, if you are infected (I mean the coronavirus here), have been diagnosed with the disease and asked to stay home but you still go out and some people actually die because of you, it can already be legally qualified at least as a "criminally negligent homicide" or "involuntary manslaughter". So it doesn't matter if the death rate from HIV is higher as you already have blood on your hands (this is a crucial point which you seem to have missed)

When establishing a cause-and-effect relationship, it is very easy to determine who infected HIV

What makes you think so, given that it takes years, sometimes even decades, till the symptoms start to develop?


You said eqrlier that some people use needles or cut with blades smeared with their infected blood. It's hard not to notice

Is this your typical approach to discussion?

I only referred to HIV-infected people pricking other people with needles. I didn't say anything about "cutting them with blades". Moreover, I also added that I had heard such stories. However, their desciption may be totally inaccurate (read, they might have been invented, to scare people). But it doesn't really matter since you can get infected in a multitude of ways (e.g. by having sex with such an individual) which don't leave you suspecting anything wrong

And how to determine that a person was infected with the virus by Vasya, and not John?

You better ask those who came up with this law

Do you happen to remember a reference to this law?

As they say, Google is your friend

Campaign Management?"Hhampuz" is the Man
As I suspect, in these circumstances such people end up being sent to "concentration camps":



I guess being quarantined at home is a better option overall

Is that the quarantine for infected people? If yes, hm, that is not good for people who will enter the concentration camps because they cannot do anything except stay in their room. Better to stay at home, and don't go out if the situations are not really safe for us than to stay at the concentration camps. I cannot imagine how people will feel comfortable with that place.

I hope the government can prepare another building for the infected people or the people with asymptomatic so they don't feel like in jail while the doctor and nurses work to cure them all.

Perhaps, there will be a notice from a local society that suggest people not to go to the casino because the chance to get infect will be bigger. Staying at home will be the best solution right now to prevent the new case of Covid-19.
this is really sudden for infected people because that is what exactly what we called 4 sides room but much better than staying in coffin .

How i wish these people will recover soon and can go back to their houses with family and love ones.



But Gambling in las vegas and UK has already started and in our country it is soon to be open also.

Need A Campaign Manager? | Contact Little_Mouse
This is the scenarios that I think will happen with the reopening of the casinos in Las Vegas.

First one. They reopened the casinos - They got a new case and the affected got it in a casino - A contact tracing will be done - All of the gamblers of that casino will be tested - They will force to close again the casino because of the case/s

Second one. They reopened the casinos - They got a new case and the affected got it in a casino - A contact tracing will be done - They will just continue to open even though there is a case already.

Either of the 2, if you really love your life then you shouldn't risk your life and go to a casino. There is an alternative way of gambling already (online) so you can still gamble without going to a physical casino. One thing more is that, more cases have been recorded in some places in US and the worse is that some of the people there are just going out without even a mask like there is no pandemic in their place. People are going out like their country isn't the epicenter of the pandemic. Looks like they don't care about their lives anymore :X.

~the asymptomatic patient will be hard to monitor but and they can spread the infection like wildfire.
That's the main reason why I think it is better to make a strict security check. Asymptomatic patients are difficult to detect and this can be a disaster if they can enter to casinos. Most of them are like normal people with have no signs of being infected. I cannot imagine how scary the condition on the casinos if there is a careless security check. 

~we don't know what tests they'd try but probably not just for covid. medical information are going to leak out.~
I think it only focuses on checking the Covid-19 symptoms, not other diseases. Even there are symptoms of other diseases, the medical checker can ask the person whether he wants to know it or not. It is private information and I am pretty sure that the medical checker won't announce it, but just keep it privately.

And it is better that there was neither one nor the other and we were all healthy. And they could afford to go to Las Vegas and play at the casino.

This is totally negligent to public health safety as the cases are only rising rapidly and does not seem to meet a halt any time soon. I don't know why people underestimate the power of a relatively new virus and disregard the fact that it could lead to severe complications if not attended immediately, especially those with weak immune system. To think that flights to and from Las Vegas are now open makes me worry a lot. Soon enough, Las Vegas would be a hotspot of infection since people from different parts of the country and the world are bringing with them the risk of infecting other people in the process. By then, I would really love to see the reaction of the mayor who insisted that the economy is far greater than public health safety when thousands of deaths are at her hands.

I don't think, if everyone follows the health rules then coronavirus will spread more. Although it is a small virus, we are unlikely to eradicate it before the vaccine is discovered. even we don't know how many years it will take to invent the vaccine. what do you think? will we stay at home till then?  it's not possible, so I think we should now go back to our workplace in full compliance with the health rules.  so, I think if casino owners and gamblers can gamble with complete hygiene then they will be much free from the risk of coronavirus.
Hygiene wont be enough and also we cant really say that we would really be free on the risk on getting the virus.It all matters with peoples discipline plus your own immune system.

No matter how careful you are but if one time you do met an asymptomatic one which you cant really able to avoid to make contact or even slight exposure into that guy then you cant really able to tell
since it doesnt show off some signs.

Its really hard to get rid as long the vaccine isnt available yet but people are now dealing with it and treating the situation to become normal where we do continue our living in spite on this
very hard situation.

Looks like Las Vegas are heading for a second wave.

If the incubation time is around 14 days and they just re-opened last week, then we should start seeing a new wave emerging in the next few days.

I don't really get how you could possibly implement safety measures in a place like this. People seem to forget that you don't actually need to be near someone who has the virus to contract it. You just need to be in close proximity to the objects and places they were in contact with—e.g. the table or slot machine they were playing at.

If people want to go there and risk death, then good riddance, people are dumb af.

Dont think they can really put the genie back in the box once its done.   They are going to force or detain people to isolate them, my guess is they would section off whole areas by closing roads or operating road blocks/checks on really badly infected towns with high % rates.

The end of the pandemic era is when there is a vaccine, measures have to be taken to reduce the spread this entire year at least.

Las Vegas casinos reopening does not mean that the pandemic is over, to be honest I was quite surprised by this news.
Obviously it's not. There's a deeper reason why they're opening and most customers doesn't have any objective with regards to it.
Though America is still
ranked first which is infected with Covid-19 the most in the world, then decides what is arguably careless. Because the worst thing could have
happened, of course with the American government granting permission to reopen casinos already with careful calculations I'm sure. Likely will
a security system is in place to monitor the health protocol being implemented properly. Hopefully the American government does not regret it
this high-risk decision.
They can revert the decision if the cases won't stabilize or if in that specific area of Las Vegas, cases are increasing.

I would not be surprised if soon in some countries there will be a criminal article for intentionally infecting other people with coronavirus.
At the moment, in many countries, violation of the quarantine regime is punished only by fines.

That can happen if people do not follow what the government suggests because once they make a contact body with other people without any social distancing, that can give a chance for the virus to spreads to other people. If there is any violation of the quarantine or new normal in the future, there will be another punishment besides fines. Maybe people need to do a social activity or even get in the hospital with full quarantine.

I think the criminal penalty is too severe for people who violate the quarantine. The fine is enough.

I guess this has been the case since HIV started spreading

I've heard stories of the HIV-positive people deliberately trying to infect other people by pricking them with needles in public places. Regarding coronavirus, willfully avoiding quarantine when infected is already a criminal offence in Russia. And if your reckless behavior led to deaths of other people, you can get up to 7 years in jail. People should be more responsible and take care not only of themselves but of other people too, which is an expected behavior in any culture

I think it is not equivalent to compare people who infect others with HIV and coronavirus.
First, it is much more difficult for a person to infect another person with HIV than with a coronavirus. To do this, you need to perform clearly deliberate actions.
Second, the death rate from HIV is much higher, and infection with the human immunodeficiency virus in most cases can be compared to premeditated murder.
People with HIV can walk the streets, go to the store, go to Las Vegas and they will not infect anyone. A person with coronavirus only needs to sneeze in a public place to infect others, but they can sneeze without intending to infect others. This is a significant difference.
As I recall, you understand the law, and you understand the difference better.

If people know that they are sick and can infect other people, then of course they should be conscious and not go out. There is no question of their going to Las Vegas. In some cases, this could be interpreted as deliberately infecting other people.
Indeed, sick people must stay at home and don't go outside. That's how we call physical distancing to prevent others infected by sick people. I assume all sick people have understood the risks to transmit/spread the virus to others if they go outside. So, it is true that once they go outside, even go to Las Vegas Casinos, it means they intentionally transmit it to others.

>Well, there should be a strict security check before the visitors go inside the casinos to prevent this danger.

I just heard in the news now that in the Philippines, one person who is already on quarantine was able to slip out and go to the island of Boracay, which is a very popular beach island in the country. So this woman went to the tourist island and then left the next day and went back to the place where she is quarantined. Now talking about people who are deliberately infecting others, I would say this is one example of those people who wants to get even with life and wants to spread the virus to others. News is she will be sued by government for violating quarantine protocols.

I would not be surprised if soon in some countries there will be a criminal article for intentionally infecting other people with coronavirus

People should be more responsible and take care not only of themselves but of other people too, which is an expected behavior in any culture

That's a good law, since we can't prevent people from going out, there should be a strict law like that for them to not neglect the risk and they will certainly comply since 7 years in jail is a long jail time, we can't even afford to get quarantine for months, how much more that 7 years in prison.
