But that also leads to more cases, right? This leads to that loop where people should not go outside and keep theirselves from going to these casinos and then end up with these people needing the money, right? We all know that these casinos are said to earn less right now, meaning there are only a small percentage of people going in these casinos, maybe some already have the virus, that's why. Life is really hard in these pandemic, instead of these lawsuits, if they really wanted to go to these casinos, they should accept the risks.

Gamblers go out and play in a casino but it's not their purpose, it's not helping the casino to generate income but to make money.

But,  we will lose even if we don't want to experience it, that's because they have the edge and sometimes we are so unrealistic.
Who would want to get entertain outside when the risk is very high, of course this people are aiming for money.

If we want to help these people in the casino, we have to go out.

Me, I am not doing that as I gamble at home, but there are people who really are going into the casino to play, casino is already part of their life so they can afford to take the risk. Of course, we can still protect ourselves and that is following measures to minimize the risk of getting infected. We have to understand that there's always a risk, measures are only done to minimize that risk and both the casinos employees are gamblers are risking themselves.

Well, it is a solution but that is very hard to attain. We already know that people would just do anything they wanted to and even though people wanted to be free from this pandemic, there would be those people continuing to not follow those protocols. Going wherever they wanted, whenever they wanted like they own the place. Then it would just end up in these lawsuits like these places are to be blamed while it is half fault of these people.

Ofcourse. I think in things like this, you get everyone together and  agree on how to keep each other safe in crisis while businesses operate. I guess there is no easy way to do this than through good media or even going to the authorities/governments with few people who should represent every member of the city/town/community where the businesses are hosted. Not a good idea to be selfcentered in your community especially during crisis.

I think that is the risk they've taken.

If they chose to contaminate the virus, I think they would be focussing on having strict lockdowns but they should balance the two that is why they are maintaining the economy in a certain point but that is still affected by the pandemic going on. This is the best option they have, it is a risk but it is a risk they need to take. These lawsuits would be useless since these casinos can defend themselves with a lot of ways for them to get the virus.

Yeah, justice will be serve for those who really have the money. The lawyers are also one of the dirtiest job for some of them making conversation on the lawsuit being filed against their client and whichever pays well definitely will also share it to the lawyer against the client in exchange to let the case be defeated by them. This is all about money and even the judge could also the same to the lawyer if the client wanted the judge decision to get influenced by their money. This always happen on small lowest trial court probably if it is a republic is the municipal trial court.

yes, and filing a lawsuit would be expensive if one does not have the concrete basis then it will just a waste of time and resources. This is why some police officers that are also responsible in filing a case against civil criminals are securing evidences first before they can proceed with the filing of the lawsuit. Usually police officers will do entrapment to the suspected violators against the law.

Well, I hope that we doesn't live with it since if we does there will be a lot of people who will die from it. It may be invisible and just anywhere we can't see but that is why we should be always careful. We should protect ourselves and just go outside if we really needed it. These casinos needed profit, these workers needed money and we people need to take care. We can't do anything to help other than keeping ourselves from the virus.

As long as they can pay their employees and can pay taxes to the government, I think that's already enough.
The risk is almost anywhere especially in places where people gathers but that's it, we have to live with the virus on our daily living, because if we stop, we might die in hunger,  that's what the government thinking on why they allow casinos to operate despite of the pandemic, we should not question that.

I don't think that is always right, it is just that we can't accept that we also have the mistakes. Like, for example there are a lot of people that are forcing themselves to gamble in these casinos instead of doing it online which makes themselves close to the virus and being contaminated and then they will be blaming these casinos for that. They aren't earning enough but still, they are earning and that means a lot of people are still going in there.

If they wanted come back into operation at the first place, they must have set strict rules and regulations regarding the implementation of health protocols to prevent the further spread of virus knowing that among the other countries in the world, US is the outstanding country to be on the top spot of having the most number of cases when it comes to covid-19 infected individuals. Now, if those casinos have failed to conduct and observe certain health protocols that have come up into creating more cases to arise, then they must not be spared and bound into exception from the lawsuits of the government because at the first place they must not have opened up and came back into operation because such idea is still not advisable at this time of pandemic.

But since they wanted to be back for them to be able to work and earn a living, they must have implemented strict health protocols to avoid getting shutdown for not following such rules and become a big reason for the further spread of infection. If casinos are really afraid from lawsuits they must have obeyed and followed health protocols to keep their workers and players safe all the time. But if I would be a gambler to play, I would rather be playing at online casinos for it is the safest and most convenient platform at this time of pandemic rather than risking my life going outside to play on a casino establishment which is impractical at times like this.

Let's be realistic here, America has the highest covid cases in the world and I don't think a simple social distancing will work at the casino besides they are going physically contact basically everything on the casino which they might get the virus. If there are going to rules it should be strict as hell coz America is the most hit country, people would not know if the virus is just on their bags, towels, etc. and is just waiting for the hosts. Casinos should consider the fact that the virus is contagious.

Of course they will be scared since the spread of Corona Virus can spread through the physical interactions with the people working in those casinos even the available equipment that they will be using inside. The only thing that they can do is make sure that their employees are healthy and complete with precautions to prevent the infection from spreading within the workplace.

Indeed, it would be very hard to prove it, but what such people, people who try to sue big companies, including big casinos, count on is a settlement, before court action begins. In many cases it is cheaper for a company to pay the "injured party", say $10k, instead of going to court. Some people try to take advantage of this situation. Not the most honorable people, if you ask me.

They are not afraid of lawsuits. What they are afraid of is that they will be the place where the infection or transmission of the virus will happen. They are trying to avoid it so that there won't be charged for being the place where it happened.

It's their choice to reason out if something like occurs on their jurisdiction but as a precautionary measure and being a business following protocols of their local government, that's the best that they can to protect their establishment.

Well, it depends on the kind of "protection" they are seeking from the government. Is it Protection from unjust "lawsuit"/penalty or protection from just lawsuit/penalty?
I don't see why the masses should be denied the just ones though

Perhaps, but at the end of the day it would be almost impossible to say for certain where a person was to have contracted Covid unless contact tracing was undertaken at the time (which I can't recall having heard the American's have taken seriously in combating the pandemic)

Most likely to be the common scenario here and its no brainer that they would always look after for high rollers since spots are for limited number of people then they wont really just easily let those small time gamers
on taking the seats which they would really prefer into those vip's as we called.

When it comes to virus spread then we cant really guarantee on whose the one do carry off, neither one of those average joes or the vip ones.This is why its really hard to point out fingers.

For lawsuits then there should be some consideration.

This is what the casinos expect, the warning with the time period to clear the issue is perfectly fine but pointing them as bad and ask them to shut down will impact on the fellow workers and also to the government if the numbers are in huge.

The High Rollers are usually in a different section to the regular walk-in off of the street kind of punters (and there's also far fewer of them at any one time).  Casino's that are savy will no doubt be targeting those high-end rollers ensuring they are well looked after.  It'd be interesting to work out if it's the high-end rollers that carry the Casino's, or, the regular Joe's.
