I don't think it will win in any court because the virus is everywhere and it's invisible the accuser will have a hard time proving that he really gets the CoVid in the facility, they could have got it in their homes in while travelling while in the market or while in the street it's hard to established the fact on this case but I don't like casinos open at this point of time people should only stay home and restrict their moves.

I think thaybt would be really hard.

I mean it is said that it is airborne-in-a-way so people couldn't really prove if they got the virus in a certain casino or maybe when they are going home. There are a lot of people they meet and talk to, there are also those aymptotic cases which might be the reason they are contaminated.

If the government allowed businesses and casinos to open now, there are also protocols that need to follow. And even if it's hard to know where the virus came from, if the casino shows that they are not following the protocols imposed by the government, their business can also be in danger. Even if they started to operate again, they are obliged to follow the rules.

In my country, when people upload a picture showing the lack of social distancing and such in an establishment, the business can get a warning and fine from the authorities, so I think it's the same that's why small casino operators are afraid that they might get a lawsuit. But if they're following the protocols, they should not be afraid of it.

The virus is too fast to spread without us noticing where we can possibly get it, as long as the casinos or any establishments able to passed the standards set by the government in implementing the protocols for anti covid operation clean up, disinfection and social distancing, businesses, casinos were free from any  issues that may come due to covid. So if  we're responsible enough we would only play via online instead of going out.

A lot of countries already managed to pin point the location of a contamination source. It might not be very difficult to prove that a certain place contaminated it's users.

In my opinion, it should be clear that these casinos are operating but that they cannot insure that people will not get sick. Even a warning like this is kind of stupid, since everyone should be aware by now that the situation we are currently facing can be dangerous.

If they are open for business and even have strict health protocols, no one can assure that no one will be infected. As some are walking asymptomatic, they can transfer the virus without them knowing. So it is really stupid if someone will sue the casino when someone gets the infection. What they can do to avoid such possible infection is not to totally go to casinos for now. If they really want to be safe from this virus.
That's what I meant, but it's absurd to threaten casinos with a lawsuit because of disease they have no control in.

Las Vegas Casinos should be ready to this kind of problems because they have decided to open even if the virus infections are keep on increasing. In the
first place, their action is a bad move if we will be the one to decide but we didn't know what the casino owners are thinking.

Either the casino owners already know that this kind of problem will likely to occur and they still continue in opening or either they didn't know that this
kind of problem will likely to happen. Small business casinos should shut down their operations if they are afraid about the Lawsuits because it is not that easy
to control all the customers that will come to your casinos and they can just open once the vaccine will be there already.

I guess they know that but they do not want false accusations that their place is where they contacted the virus that's million dollars worth of lawsuits imagine if thousands of people will charge these casinos there will be no casinos that will operate even if the pandemic is gone because of bankruptcy.

I think both the casino and the government will need to coexist to solve that problem by implementing the rule and the protocols to protect people from the infection.

Before the casino was allowed to re-open, the government already issued a guidelines to follow when vegas resumes, and by opening the casino, they agreed with the guidelines to implement the safety protocol, so they should not be afraid of lawsuits if they implement it effectively.

In the first place, people are are not required to go in a casino, it's their well to be in a casino and they should understand that there's a risk that they might get infected. I'm just curious, do they get have an outstanding legal case from clients already?

We don't know if they have that or not because I think they will not release to the public, and they have, they will solve it without telling people. It is right that people don't have to go to the casino because the risk will be there, and even if they want to go to the public area, they will know that the risk will also be there.

The government's guidelines must be followed if they want to help reduce the infection, and no matter if their members don't obey the rule, they need to act decisively because the casino wants to protect the other members.

Of course reopening casinos in a pandemic situation like now must follow government regulations. If the casinos are proven to be violated
health protocols that have been established by the government must be willing to close these casinos. Because the COVID-19 pandemic is
not possible underestimated. So there's no need to be scared of lawsuits, that's the risk that all casinos have to face today.

I think the casino will not try to break the government's protocols because if they try it, they will lose the opportunity to make money. As long as they follow everything, it will be okay for the casino, and they will not get a lawsuit from people.

I mean, is there anyone even not scared of lawsuits. I don't know much about how small businesses here have opened up, sanitized and the like their business, but really, I think both parties are at fault here. I mean, why would you even go to a Casino with how the world is right now? As for the casino side, they obviously failed to do health regulations properly. Also, you can't blame small Casinos from wanting to open with your argument of opening up an online business. At least, in physical casinos, they have some customers from their neighbors, but online ones? The competition there is intense and unless you can advertise well, a newly released online Casino would not go noticed.

PLUS, if you were to blame Casinos as the cause of someone being infected and file lawsuits at them, might as well do it everywhere, like marketplaces, stores, etc. The argument that those sell daily needs while casinos don't seem pretty stupid as well since no one really forced you to go to Casinos after all.

Quote
The Nevada Resort Association has urged Nevada's lawmakers and governor to pass legislation that protects casinos and small businesses from frivolous lawsuits

Other trade bodies and executives warn that small businesses are vulnerable to liabilities and that should be limited quickly to avoid further economic slump

The argument goes that it's nearly impossible to prove where an employee got infected and if a business is directly responsible





I agree that they should not open very early until the infection is controlled but we are fighting an invisible enemy and it's very hard to establish where you got that virus The Nevada Resort Association is just protecting the interest of the business and of course the city because they are the city's bread and butter, many complaints will follow if they are not going to do this.

With Covid19 it is not easy to predict and state where you can be infected. If when visiting a Casino you observe that all sanitary measures are followed for your safety and that of all. Your visit could be a success but there will always be someone who wants to benefit from this situation if He/She turns out positive in some of these Casinos and issue a claim to profit.

We can't blame the people who file the petition for casino owners that may shut down their business. To start the casino owners must follow a protocol at times like this and those who didn't folloe will surely shut their business down. If the pandemic did not happen then it would be a different story.

Over here in the capital City of Abuja FCT, the government had done the same to some irresponsible gambling casinos because they don't strictly obey the given protocols from the NCDC. The task force enforced the closure of some selected gambling casinos to avert the spread of the novel pandemic in the region and country.

The Las Vegas casinos scared of lawsuits is a clear indication of their irresponsibility. No need to be afraid of any sort because the government had already given the green night for the resumption of the casinos, their fears came from their irresponsibility, so, they should face it squarely.

One of the reasons why some of the casinos in Las Vegas are now open because of the important role that they serve in the economy, it is a billion dollar industry and the tax that the government generating from those casinos are important in order for the government to support their local economy and also the lives of the people whonare affected because of the pandemic.

Actually I do not know why a lot of people are still willing to go to traditional casinos even though there is a threat, maybe their addiction drives their engine and soul for them to do what they desires but they should be aware that they can get the virus from the casinos especially if a certain casino doesn't have good health protocol.

Casinos are so large, employing so many people, like the hole city of Las Vegas is build upon those casinos. Without them the city is doomed. Sure there were infections in the casinos but that can also be the case of people not following the safety instructions properly. If the casinos were closed and the visitors would have went to the beach instead there is still a chance they would have gotten corona.

I think the lawesuits should not be allowed on a federal level. Casinos are already hurting a lot at the moment, we shouldn't attack them further. If everything keeps being closed, the economy will go to shit completely. It has to be a trade off between protecting everyone, and helping the economy.

To be honest, that makes no sense to me. On the same principle people can file lawsuit against shopping malls, beauty salons, restaurants or any other object, people can get infected everywhere.


Maybe there are lots of such lawsuits too. Check out this article, for example:

https://therealdeal.com/la/2020/06/22/for-las-malls-lawsuits-could-be-the-next-crisis/

This sounds to me more like a campaign against casino, an opportunity to make harm to them like "unnecessary" business but I don't think this is going to work.

I don't think it's a campaign against casino. Many businesses, those mentioned by you and more, have been affected by the pandemic. If I were a business owner, I would go online completely until this Corona crisis settles down. Or, I would place  a warning right on the entrance, saying: "You are entering this public place at your own risk. Your safety from contracting COVID-19 is not guaranteed." Something like that(not a lawyer myself), to prevent possible lawsuits.

We really cannot blame those who have made and filed these cases against the big casinos. I mean the government did ask the casinos to open to stimulate the economy, with conditions that the owners of these casinos should follow certain health protocols, and should have known and prepared for the pandemic. The owners should be aware about the huge loss they will get if they close the business. As were advised by many here, managing online casinos should have been the option that should have made by them to ensure that they have a steady flow of cash.
