I was faced with real-life situations in my city over the weekend, I visited a casino house close to my residence to have some fun time but on getting to the casino gate I was stopped by security at the gate and they demanded a covid 19 vaccine card which I don't have at the moment and I was denied entry I felt embarrassed but I have no option than to turn back. Is the situation the same in your neighborhood?

No heavy restrictions yet in my city but they're planning already to do that kind of thing and that's the right way to make sure that everyone gets vaccinated, those unwilling won't get isolated and at the same time will not cause mutation in infection because they're a carrier of the virus. I am liking this vaccination stuff because lots of perks when you're vaccinated.

It's different here.

Big casinos here in our country only requires temperature check, face mask, and face shield for their guests. They only require vaccination cards only when guests are entering dining areas.


I think its because the Senate here rejected the bill that requires for a mandatory vaccination against the virus.

I went last Friday to a landbase casino here, and there was no demand for a vax card in front. Although I brought my vax card with me in case they demand it. Because several shops and restaurant now are open and you can eat and dine-in, but on prerequisite is that you need to have been fully vaccinated. The question is, are you vaccinated or not? If you are fully vaccinated then you need to bring your card anymore because that's more on a identification in today's normal.

I feel bad about you mate but as what you have said you have no other option but to turn back since it is the protocol of the casino house. I haven't been in a casino house for a quite long time now because I am not yet fully vaccinated which I also don't know if those casino houses here in my country did allowed gamblers which are not yet vaccinated too to gamble. For a quite long time I am enjoying my spare time having fun playing gambling online but to be honest I do miss the ambiance of playing inside the casino house.

This is a sad experience. Covid-19 vaccines have been one way some countries enforce that role, casino houses are a public place and at that, the government will pay close attention to it. I was in a stadium sometime back and we were asked to show a vaccine card before entering.

We don't have yet here, casinos still closed but I think that rule in your city is really good since casino is a gathering space of gamblers and if you don't have vaccine or any of the players is sick it can easily spread the virus. Actually some establishments and malls implemented this so it's no surprised if they do it too in casino.

I expect this to happen more and more often. Afaik the governments are not really allowed to do this (discrimination cannot be in the law), but they kinda encourage businesses implement it "for their own safety".
I personally had to show the vaccination card only at the border, but I know that it was at least one festival you could enter only with proof you are vaccinated, had the illness in the last 6 months or you have a (very) fresh negative test result.

It's nothing to be embarassed really, it's just the harsh reality I suppose. I'd reckon your country has some pretty bad situation with regards to the pandemic right now, hence why they're trying to put out such priorities, even at the cost of having reduced business income on top of their already reduced ones because of the limitations that the pandemic has caused. It does feel bad ngl, I mean, anyone would probably feel bad if they got denied entry in an establishment, but hey, at least it's an incentive for you to get vaccinated (or remember your vaccine card when going out)

It is reasonable for health reason, if you were in the government position and you have very bad situation during the pandemic , you'll do the same thing. It applies in most places in some countries where people need to show or to prove that they are vaccinted already before entering a "closed" Plubic places where the air circulation is not good enough.

More casino's and other establishments will soon adopt this. I envisage a situation where it may not be publicly announced that everyone must have the vaccine, but you will not permitted to use or visit any public place until you present a vaccination card.

Some governments have set new rules of operations for some of these establishments which they must adhere to before they can fully operate. Wearing the face mask is one, that is very compulsory in public places, but be it a public space as a casino where it may be a discomfort wearing the face mask inside all the time, a vaccination card is an option to avoid putting people in danger.

Vaccination card ain't that strict and mandatory when entering establishments as long as you have sufficient body temperature and follow safety protocols. Though there are private establishments that requires vaccination card for their own safety as well, but time will come when vaccination card is mandatory.
As of the moment, in my place, vaccination cards are only essential when you're traveling from other provinces and cities.

In some casinos it is true, they have no choice but to follow the instructions of the local government, it is for the good of their business. In my place the casino is illegal, that's why we were given the freedom to go in and out of the casino without such papers.

this will be like the new normal soon in some establishments. it is like discrimination for those who are not yet vaccinated. there are some supermarkets that ive visited that they are offering some promos for those vaccinated but they haven't denied entry yet. now, for casinos where i am currently residing, i haven't heard such news about non acceptance of unvaccinated people. but am seeing that they will have some bonus programs for those vaccinated people. i guess, we need to accept this fact very soon. they just want to feel safe in this crisis.

I really think you don't have to feel embarrassed when you don't have a vaccination card yet, and I think there are just a few establishments in my country that are using this kind of method, and I am OK with it, even though I am not fully vaccinated yet, I will just bet on online ones rather than giving a try in the casino's and this is just a safety countermeasure aside from the Face mask, face shield and social distancing this is another line of protection for the players and they are surely encouraging their players to take vaccination first before playing in their house, I think this is a good thing to do for now just to be safe.

I think you do not have to go to that casino if they do not allow people who are not yet vaccinated to enter their casino. I do not think you will be embarrassed as maybe you are still waiting to get a vaccination so you can not show the Covid-19 vaccine card to them or you do not want to be vaccinated. You can visit on crypto gambling site and you are free to play on that casino while you can also stay from your home. I think that will be safe for you as you do not have to contact other people you do not know.

Some casinos maybe strict enough to require people to show their vaccination card before they can enter, and we have to understand that they are not making their own rules, it's most likely the directives of the government and I think it's not only in casinos but in places where it could gather a crowd.

In our country, face masks and face shields are only required, but I would not be surprised if soon they will also require people to get vaccinated first before they can enter.

Yes, there is a similar policy here. It is prohibited to assemble in almost any enclosed area where there will be a large number of people without a COVID card. One needs to be either vaccinated, or have recovered from COVID, or have a negative test result for coronavirus of less than 48 hours.

Very soon, we may see other establishments following this kind of strict regulation with their customers. This may be their agreement with their government to push thru their opening with the business. With such restrictions, they can ask for more people inside their casino. For those who can't get in, then, it is time to play via online. There are so many advantages that you can get now playing via online.

I already saw many established already requirement that you have to show them that you have the card before they will allow you to enter.

But as far as casino, in my experienced, they didn't ask me anything, they just do the usual routine, body temperature check and that's it, although I'm already fully vaccinated.

Same as yours and there's a recommendation here of implementing a bubble economy for vaccinated where only those with the vaccinated cards can go to movies, restaurants, and shopping malls, was with a friend to get an X-Ray they not only request a vaccination card but an antigen as well, I guess this is the new normal where casinos, movie house, and restaurant will ask for antigen and vaccination card.
It's much better to play in online casinos you can bet at the comfort of your home and they do not ask anything related to vaccines.

Here where i live the hotels, restaurants, shops and also casinos can decide for themself who they are letting in and a lot of them chose only to let in people that are either vaccined, cured or tested. I went to a restaurant two weeks ago and there we had to show our vaccination cards otherwise we would have been not allowed to get in. It is not mandatory to be vaccinated in my country but if more and more public institutions, shops, bars, restaurants etc. are demanding from you to be vaccinated or tested then you basically have to get a vaccination because otherwise you can not do anything anymore because if you get tested everytime it will become pretty expensive.

In my city they dont check anything you can go in and out as you like with no protocols or any of those stuff.I dont know why you felt embarrased its their protocols. This will probobly start to be all over the world hopefully dosent effect my city . Vaccines will also be need for other stuff then just gambling so this will become a normal thing in the future

Therefore, online casinos do not burden you with showing a vaccination certificate. I know you are visiting a physical casino and they are implementing a protocol that has been established by the health authorities that every company that wants to open, then applies some conditions. There are some different policies where you just need to check your body temperature, wear a mask. And if you have to show a vaccination certificate, it's quite difficult because no matter what level of protocol they apply, it will only lead to a lack of visitors.

What I didn't expect was, how come they are open again amidst the pandemic. In most cases, governments let business for necessities but a casino is not one of them. I don't know if I will be glad about it since that is a step closer to having a normal economy or should I be scared that it would increase the number of Covid cases. Well, I guess they studied it first before opening the gates of hell.  ;D
I'd rather stick with online gambling for now than risk it just for the added fun.

Nope there's no something like that implemented in our country as they are not strict about this  vaccination things but I suggest you to get vaccinated as it really helpful to us if majority of the people around the world already got their own vaccine as we can fasten up to reach the herd immunity and provably at least return back to normal. There's nothing to get embarrassed about that and its a call to get yours so that you will be safe and if you want to follow what your government together with the facility requires you.

I don't know but from where am I casino still close, though there are some businesses which already open for the public but casino is not part of those allowed businesses to operate,.

But same with the situation, those open establishments required fully vaccinated person before they'll allow you to enter and do business with them.

In terms of gambling, I rather take the advantage using online site and use crypto as a mean for playing. ;)

In my own part of the country no restrictions yet but we are been threatened by some casino  operators to implement this too. But its for our own good and safety life should be our top most priority. I have gotten my second doze of the vaccine so its more likely that this implementation wouldn't affect me

That has been the trend now, and maybe the government sees it's very important to get people vaccinated as you can't consistently tell people to do social distancing in a casino, some are not anymore wearing masks because that would not give them the full excitement when gambling, so the virus will easily spread, and without a vaccine, your body will easily be weak.

I guess we can understand what they are trying to deliver to people, and if we don't like it, then we can choose to gamble online.

I just went outside to buy some groceries and I just noted that my local sportsbook has just been closed because no one wanted to enter the area with the Covid Passport. For me , this is to much but it seems they will close all of them if they won't have any clients. Feels bad for those who worked there because it's not their fault that people won't do the vaccine... . I've also read that Casinos are the next on the list. At least this is the situation in my country.

During the pandemic until there was a vaccination regulation in gambling casinos I really didn't pay much attention to the new policies. Both in my environment and in places when I visit out of town. I don't even think it's just a physical casino, in some shopping places the guards will ask the same thing. This seems to have become a must-have for all places. The government implements quite strict rules and people must have a vaccine certificate.

I do not know why it has become so with the casino not allowing you to get in. Should they not have relied on asking those going in there to put on face masks and do the temperature check thing? This is not right at all. All this use of force makes people believe the government has something dangerous it is hiding from the citizens by forcing them to take the vaccine. People should be allowed to choose whether to get vaccinated or not, it should not be compulsory.

This situation of vaccination card required will keep occuring not only on in casino areas but other places of gathering like banks too and big companies that have clusters of people. It is unfortunate that we have come into this kind of situation but in Nigeria, the restrictions are yet around airports for passengers wanting to fly out or in. I'm yet to know of others places requiring evidence of covid-19 vaccination but the vaccination is on going down to primary health cares/hospitals.

Different country of course, the way the rules treat people for activities is different, usually the vaccine certificate is only shown on travel either within the country or abroad, that's one proof that they have been vaccinated.

It's different, with casino gambling house, it's not government owned casino, it's owned by company or individual, if asking for a vaccine certificate is too strict, sometimes people visit casino houses for fun, this is actually stricter than government rules.

In my area there is no security officer to do that, it's just that using (masks) is enough and a little bit of distance, anyone can enter, except: minors.

Well, those who have been fully vaccinated will be unaffected by this law; I, for one, am vaccinated; however, if you think about it, we all know that there are still people who do not want to be vaccinated because they have their own beliefs, but others are forcing them; for example, you cannot go there or here if you have not been fully vaccinated; we live in a democratic world; however, I am saddened that the majority of them are I'm hoping this changes, but I'm glad I'm vaccinated because there are numerous discounts.

First, I have not visited a land-based casino at this time due to the covid-19 pandemic, I just like to be safe at home than socialize with people there.

As far as I know, our country does not require anyone to get vaccinated first before they can enter a casino, I think the restriction was only a limited number of people can enter and they have to wear face masks. Just follow the rules so there would be no problem, you can still have fun doing online gambling mate.

Well, that's a lesson to learn. You don't play this game in the real business environment. You ask customers to do x, y, z, and they will leave with their money. I've done it myself. I (the customer) decide where to do business, not the service providers.

The problem is, some businesses do that shit to get money from the government, to be eligible for aid, they have to comply and enforce stupid rules. Thus, the decision is no longer what we see in the free market economy, but more of a centrally planned. Hence "no vaccine, no entry;" Me: Okay! bye~

Casinos are working fine in my place like a normal days, they are not that strict and still everyone can play even if you are not vaccinated. Maybe time will come that most of the establishments will also implement this one, though in my place dine in on most of the restaurants are exclusive only to those who are fully vaccinated. Anyway, if you are not vaccinated yet, online gambling is a good alternative for you for now, but make sure to get your vaccine to be more safe, don't be afraid to become zombies.

The citizens are allowed to choose or not to get vaccination, but you'll need to take the risk of limited facilitation/ service access in your country. It's mandatory, that's why some antivaxxer don't want to take vaccine.

Seems like your country is very strict enough, I don't see any reason why a casino need to ask vaccine card. Even a fully vaccinated person could still has a chance infected too.

here casinos and nightclubs have not enforced mandatory vaccine cards but hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and government offices require vaccine cards for those who want to visit....must have a vaccine card will definitely be implemented for a long time by the government.

They have to at the least implement that because we really need to follow the rules regarding vaccination, and businesses are a big part of that since they gather people and a gathering is going to cause an infection chain. Right, don't worry about Zombification, dead people have rigid body and their joints won't work as they're decaying.

My country is too strict in implementing vaccines due to number of covid positive, however these will help to stop more the infection if many will be vaccinated. I mean, we can still be infected but atleast it will not be too serious since our body will create antibodies from vaccines that can help us to recover fast. It’s good that casino provides this implementation to let others do get vaccines too. There are more perks in my country when you got vaccinated since only thos who are vaccinated can travel go in other borders.

This is a problem if you can't control your gambling urge, you have to get vaccinated first to enjoy gambling all you want. Most advanced countries already made that a requirement, though they say that vaccines are not compulsory with what is happening now, it looks like you can't go and do business without getting vaccinated.

It's very simple, comply with the rules if you want to enjoy gambling in a casino.  :)

Well, a casino house is similar to a mall in that it is crowded with people. However, malls do not require vaccination cards, but you must pass through a temperature checker before entering. I believe the casinos are simply suppressing COVID cases so that they can continue to operate during the pandemic, and I hope you understand. There are certain casinos that do not require a vaccination card, but most establishments now do because most governments have previously launched a covid vaccination program, and they think that most people are now vaccinated.

This is the best time to just go online, at least less risk as you can just play at the comfort of your home.
Though there are some games that are actually enjoyable to play on physical casinos.
Anyway, I don't think this protocol will be true for all casinos. Try their other competitors, and they may accept even unvaccinated just follow the health protocols.
If not, you have no other choice but to get the shot if you want to play in physical casinos. Otherwise, be contented with online gambling.

You just felt that you are embarrassed, but its not actually, instead you supposed to know that, due to that we are in the progress of pandemic where we need to follow all the protocol procedure in any form of the private business especially for the players in the land based casino and social distancing must still be apply as well. 

Sorry mate. My city has only a "No Mask, No Entry" policy at clubs. Albeit, there's laxity in its enforcement.  I can't say for casinos because we have none over here. In my opinion, I'd say, 1 in 10 persons can be said to have received the vaccine.

Not only in your city but every person in the world will need a vaccine card because the virus will be here for a very long time just like colds but it's even worse, and this is also to compel those who do not want to get vaccinated to get a vaccine or they will be ostracized, I really don't like this kind of rule but this is necessary this is a new normal and we have to live with it.

For now, yes only on some selected establishments like restaurants. But soon, we can expect that most establishments will now require a vaccination card, fully dose, to all people. I'm really expecting that since it's slowly taking place. It was first required on travel leisure on which the local government is the one who mandated the law. That's the reason why many people now undergo a vaccine because of mandatory requirement on some leisure and social activities such as going to mall, resort and hotel booking, beach, tourist attraction etc.

Since there's no outdoor gambling for casinos (like alfrescos on restaurants), that's the big reason for casinos to impose a requirement of having a fully vaccine shots.

This is getting too far, I am a supporter of people getting the vaccine because I think that is what is best for them as it improves their chances of survival if they get the virus and it is the best also for society, however I am against this because this is outright discrimination, imagine that a business did this based on the color of your skin, the media and the people will be over that business claiming they are violating the rights of those people and I think the same is happening here.

Travel restrictions are one of the strict rules made by the government of my country to reduce the number of Covid-19 spreads and also increase the number of people who are vaccinated

our lives are currently forced to follow the vaccination rules set by the government. otherwise, our movements will be minimized

for those who are not willing to get a vaccine shot, you should only just play at online casinos

Well, to be honest, It's quite lax here in the Philippines. Despite the increased number of Covid Cases, Government somehow lifted some restrictions and made public places including these casinos. I doubt that these casinos got closed during those lockdown periods. Well, I'd suggest this should be a mandatory as well here in the Philippines. Since it has the same Logic of people having dine-in services, people will also spend time playing inside the casino. Much worst, Casino goers spend more time than those who are just eating inside a restaurant or some sort.

I've never been to a casino house because I've never tried it, but about this where everyone who will enter the casino house or the type of people in it is under very strict security considering that now many are implementing vaccine cards, and anyone who hasn't In the vaccine it is not allowed to enter, besides in my area, some shops and supermarkets also check like this and always check the vaccine card, now it is mandatory in many countries to be vaccinated and start activities freely, including playing in traditional casinos.

The situation is almost the same in my town but this was the time when I went inside the mall and had my haircut. Good thing, I brought my vaccination card with me because barber shops require proof of vaccination cards in order to avail their services.

To be honest, this is completely fine for me as it provides an extra layer of security to combat against COVID19 and its further transmission from person-to-person. To make matters worse, lots of people are against vaccination due to the spread of fake information about its side-effects, etc.

But in terms of visiting a physical casino, my brother told me that they did require proof of vaccination cards as an ID before you enter such establishment.

I would say this is more a problem of your government not properly organizing these vaccination cards rather than putting any blame on a business that just wants to protect it's patrons. The vast majority of people in most countries will take a safe vaccine when offered, so that naturally means that the majority think it is the proper solution out of this crisis we are in. It is only fair that the wishes of the majority are respected and unless you have a good medical reason why you cannot be vaccinated then you should be taking it to protect those around you. The rules in my country are much more lax and businesses are free to make their own rules but most do not enforce any restrictions now. If you're in a country with high transmission rates then it might be a sensible setup to reduce the spread in confined spaces.

Well perhaps, different countries have different stories about vaccination, and here is my place --there is no mandatory vaccination, and those who are not vaccinated should not be experience rejection in any place. What they are worried, they are vaccinated and as they said, once you are vaccinated you are fully safe from the virus and you are immune to it. Perhpas if you don't have any safety gear like a facemask and face shield and don't follow safety protocol, that is the time you will not enter any establishments like casinos, malls, or even in the public market which is prone to a crowded place. Casino houses won't let this happen or people will choose online casinos while we are in the pandemic.

If it's government implemented rules, then there's no chance that casino will disregard that, especially now that the virus still spreading, it causes them the permits if being caught not implementing these rules.

I see the point that even in physical casino they also preventing spread to their clients. If you want to enjoy the game physically, then it's have to take the vaccine.

No other option if you want to play physically but if you only want to gamble, online site are always a good alternative.

I also expect every buildings (public and private) will require vaccination card in order to let the individual enter them in most countries, since it's a global sanitary guideline. But for now I think they shouldn't introduce it yet, because people are still getting vaccinated slowly, as there isn't enough doses for everyone, especially the youngest ones. It will prejudice businesses' income and harm economy even more as younger people are the most active spenders inside a society.

Regards gambling, at least we have online casinos which are perfectly suitable in this case. If regulations keep increasing in severity each new day, online businesses will have an extra boost to expand their customers' base. For them especifically it's very good anyway.

Don't go to that casino again. Are all the other casinos ask for the documents? If not, find somewhere that doesn't ask for ze papers. Starve them so they'll learn it by the hard way. Do not support these assholes in any way.


Not yet but we are heading that direction.

That is a good suggestion, starve them and don't support this idea, this is the same as discriminating others, many countries did not support on this idea because they respect of what other people's decisions. Vaccines do not truly give you a guarantee that you will safe from the virus. There are still studies and research on this stage and many people have died not the virus but the vaccine because they never know what is the outcome of the vaccines, they are just studying us. If a casino support this way, then, there is no way adopt them or even visit them.

This is an abuse of the right of casino users. How can the government possibly put restrictions on vaccines? I thought vaccination should be a thing of choice for citizens and not a requirement for accessing public places. It is quite disappointing and I will advise you to stick to online gambling rather than going to a casino House.

It is already starting here on my country on where malls and other establishments are needing already some vaccination card or even travelling in between boundaries which they are really needing off that card

which means its really a hassle thing that you cant really make out some action due to have no vaccination card which would really be putting you in trouble and would put you up on a situation that you would

really be needing to have some shot so that you could able to access those places again.Its up to your own choice whether you do get vaccinated or would continue on having none.

This is a change that we should expect by now not just in casinos and other businesses as well. I have post here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5362404.msg58026994#msg58026994) recently that it's not allowed now on some Malls here to have a dine-in at any restaurants without being fully vaccinated. There's a nearby casino here (bingo) but not yet implementing a fully vaccinated person to enter inside their premises. Only a face mask and face shields are enough but honestly, once you are inside that casino, only a few wear face shields. Not that strict after all.

If someone from PH here, that establishment I'm talking about is near the Arcovia City along C-5 road. They are a legal business and now operating.

Same situation here on my place on where whenever you do travel it is really the main paper or requirement for you to able to pass which i do end up on refusing and they dont let us pass to go into the other side
which do really sucks because you would really be thinking that the only way you do need to access things is to take a shot or getting vaccined.So far there are no buildings or places here which
do require vaccination card but i wont be surprised that they would be requiring in the future.

I didn't really understand in which country you are living but for me it's almost the same thing in my country, and in most of countries of Europe : you need a green pass to enter in a land-based casinos. That is to say a recent negative test or to have been fully vaccinated.

For travels, it's really necessary to have a fully vaccinated card or negative result against Covid-19. Of course, they just taking care of their place especially if you are from an area where there are lots of Covid-19 cases or their place don't have much that case. I don't see that requirements as sucks.

But for casinos, the restriction comes early. I doubt most gamblers are fully vaccinated now. It will just make their business not fully generating a revenue. But if that's a law mandated by that country, casino owners have no choice but to comply.

I do understand that protocol but way back they are just asking some permit to travel which do only requires some screening and then your'e good to go but now they are already asking out vaccination card which im not
still vaccinated as of this moment because i dont really like on being vaccinated for personal reasons which it do really restrict out on going to other places which you dont really have any intent on something else.
There are some rumors here on my place where malls and others will really be requiring soon.

It seems that many countries have enacted regulations that must show evidence that they have been vaccinated and test results are negative,
to enter the crowd place. Such as casinos, stadiums, malls and public transportation.  This is done to make people aware of the importance of
getting vaccinated, in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19. It is proven that in countries with high vaccination rates, the decline in people
who are positive for COVID-19 has also fallen drastically. This means that vaccination is very effective to do, and if there are people who still refuse
the vaccine, that is their right. Maybe they can play online gambling for people who can't enter the casino because they can't show proof that
they have been vaccinated.

We live in a new norm now, everyone needs to get protected and vaccinated. It's not just you, but others around you. If you don't want to get vaccinated, that is fine, but you don't endanger people and your love ones who are vaccinated.

I support every casino and every established that require this card to be presented when you enter their premises.

Don't be embarrassed about that. It's understandable with the world's current situation and every establishment wants their business to accept vaccinated people.

That's not new, I've experienced that too but not with a casino but with a restaurant. You still have a choice to get vaccinated and go there or just gamble online at your own comfort.

That's because way back, there are no vaccine rollouts yet. Now that there is lots of vaccine available, it now become a mandatory thing as requirement to travel. Regarding malls, here in our country, no dine-in allowed for not fully vaccinated. Only allowed at outdoor dining. Soon all restaurants are expected to follow the protocol all over the country.

We should hug that rule now as no choice but to follow.

I am expecting these policy to be implemented everywhere where vaccine will be mandatory in every aspect of our life and that is how the government will implement these things in the long run, so that they can make sure that everyone is vaccinated. Right now the Casino is a start but later on there will be a regulation by the government later down the year that if you need to travel in public transport they should be vaccinated.

I haven't entered any casino since the pandemic began. Well, I was never really a regular casino player even before the pandemic. But this should be made illegal. It goes against the rule that vaccines are not compulsory. People are not forced to take the vaccine. But what will happen if all establishments, private and public, would start asking for vaccine cards every time customers enter? That's in effect forcing people to take the vaccine even if it is against their wishes. That's because vaccine cards serve as passes. That would be unfair.

It's not surprising since the government was also suggesting the vaccine passport so anyone who has it can travel freely. Same with entry to establishments like casinos and they will guise it for safety and prevention for the spread of the virus.

Although the government already mandated every people to get vaccinated,  they can't just force everyone to go to get injected.

That casino applies a new rule because of the situation and condition in your country and they do not want to break your government law. You do not have to feel embarrassed because I think other people who live in your city might not get a vaccination so if they refuse you to enter their casino, you can walk away and search for the other casino. I think that is the risk for people who do not want to be vaccinated. But if your home has internet access, then online gambling is a match for you.

Do you think physical casinos actually care about your health? No, they only care about money. They're just obeying the annoying new rules. This rule actually has 2 sides of the blade. They comply but the number of visitors will decrease. They refuse, their casino will be banned from operating.

I don't think there are any physical casino options to visit that are free of health protocols as long as they are under the same government regulations.
So, welcome to the vaccine era, don't forget your vaccine card wherever you are having fun.

I have not experience it yet and as far as I know casinos and similar establishments are still not allowed to operate here due to covid restrictions.

But in some cities they are also requiring the people to have a vaccine before you can enter, like in malls and fast food chains.

Although there are only few cities implementing such rules here but I think on the coming days it will be mandatory to have yourself vaccinated. Because it might be a new requirement in work, malls and other places since the Government is considering it in order to encourage people to get the vaccine.

Since this has been implemented in most countries, of course this will be applied in places that are crowded with visitors, including casino places. We are still in the case of covid-19, the government must respond to this better and want the people to remain prosperous and be able to avoid covid-19.
Well, just come back after you get a vaccine card, that's better because it's impossible for you to force yourself to enter even though actually you don't had covid.

It's now the reality that we must face because the virus is very contagious, people will need to be vaccinated and every establishment can only accept people that are vaccinated because they don't want their place to be a place where infected people can spread the virus, I already have my card wherever I go and have to accept this new normal.

No, it's not. Discrimination? It's simply safety measures done, whether it's just them following the rules or whether they truly want people to be safe, it's still a matter that brings safer spaces for their customers and that's that. Stop being stupid, bring out those studies that you're speaking of and not empty words. That's just the words of someone who's truly not done their own research lmao, stop using social media as your source of news.                
But doesn't that simply mean that the situation in that certain country is pretty much going out of control? There'd come a time that the government would be forced to make it compulsary if majority of the people don't voluntarily vaccinate themselves. As for their rights, I don't think it's a conflict since it's actually not only for their health's sake, but also the majority?

They don't implement such a thing in our country because once the people knew some establishments won't allow their employers to work without a vaccination card, the people will rally and will use that chance to put the blame on the current administration. Because they said that it was not obligatory and if they wanted to impose such rules then they are not to be trusted anymore. They can propose to give the people some freebies when getting the vaccine but to make it obligatory to each one won't really make sense.

A vaccination card can be easily forged so I don't know how effective these requirements will be at preventing the virus from spreading. One concern I have is how far will they go with these restrictions that prevent unvaccinated people from going about their life freely. Some people have a valid reason for not getting vaccinated that have nothing to do with crazy conspiracy theories and these rules are discriminatory against them.

Agreed, and it is their choice not to receive a vaccine, which we should respect. Regarding forging, anyone can do it, but when you go to other places, it needs to be checked. They already have an online system from which you can get a vaccine certification that you are fully vaccinated. It's like airports, where they have to check it online to see if it's true. However, in local use, such as when they are just looking at it, they will expect it to be original.

Yes, their choices should be respected. Regarding the vaccine card, it is not a guarantee that the person carrying it is free from the virus. Even if the card is legit and the owner is confirmed to have received complete doses of the vaccine, it is not an assurance that the person does not have covid and is safe to mingle with. The vaccine does not make people 100% immune to the virus. It is only a prevention of a severe complication from the virus. It means a gambler with a legit vaccine card could still be infected and could still spread the virus to others.

The current situation I believe is the same, because the vaccine itself is a step to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and to restore the economy. One thing we must realize is that there is no cure for covid19 itself and vaccination is an important step that we must take, so I think it is natural for casinos to implement that because many tourist attractions and even shopping centers currently require proof of vaccines.

It is true because people do not want to get limitations in their daily access in public places so they will try to forge the vaccination card.
Even I heard that people are trying to forge a letter of Covid-19 check to bypass the system and go to other places.
Well, we can not do anything except following the government rules as we live in our country.
All of this is because the pandemic is still beside us and I do not think it will really solve in the next year.
The requirement of a vaccination card can be a must thing that people must have before they go to public areas.

Where I am located there was only one big casino in the city as all small ones were closed by the government,now there are two though which give us some variance.I and anyone else is free to go there but they have to enter a disinfection tunnel before entering and also to wear a mask and have a hand sanitizer together with you.If you fulfill the conditions you can easily play here,no problem so far although the government want to make vaccine obligatory and then we can't even buy bread without the vaccination card.Massive protests were made and so far the government backed up from this plan.

In my opinion, such measures are not acceptable in any normal country! Requiring a covid passport is not humane to people! Why does anyone have the right to restrict action because of some vaccine in the body? The world is more and more reminiscent of Orwell's novel "1984"...
Although I guess I'm even less lucky, casinos are illegal in my country! ;D

Why embarrassed when you already Knew that Virus is the main enemy the world has now and Casino houses are even required by the government to impose this solution to not allowing not vaccinated people so they will pushed to have one?

and if this is a rules simply given by the management alone? then my respect to them is completely high because they managed to risk losing players than to lose lives.

they can let people enter their premises even without vaccine but they are concerned about health of everyone and i love them for this.

I have never visited a casino in my entire life.I'm gambling online.I live in a small town and there was a small casino,but it was closed recently.I've never played any games in that casino. :(
Being restricted due to not having a vaccine seems like discrimination to me.I'm glad that the COVID rules are pretty liberal in my country and the government won't allow such discrimination.
I guess that you will have to follow the rules and get vaccinated,if you want to visit a casino,which by the way,seems like a stupid reason to get vaccinated.Do you have a gambling addiction,OP? ;D

It's a protocol and nothing you can do about that since it is for the safety of all the people including you but it's really a disappointing that you are not allowed to play and enter the casino. Another thing you can do is probably getting vaccinated as easy as that I think there are some benefits on having being vaccinated such as discounts or win a lottery or something.

I see a post before about getting a vaccine and have a chance to win a money.

No in my very neighborhood we still go about our normal local casino gambling routine without vaccination restrictions. I will even say a handful of the citizens within my location are yet to get vaccinated including top government officials. Before we would get to this very level where casinos in my neighborhood would demand for vaccine card almost 2/3 of the population must have received their own dosage but for now nothing of such exist

Yep, that how it goes now in many countries. At least most places will give you the option of taking a test to enter, although that alternative may be expensive it will ensure your are free to disagree on what is clearly an experimental vaccine (if we can call these vaccines at all). You will have to weight the risk of catching a bad COVID versus the possibility of having side effects. Including not being admitted is just another factor for some I guess.

my government requires vaccination of all its citizens, but unfortunately after the government vaccinated its citizens in my country, many people died and were completely paralyzed after being vaccinated, did you experience the same thing in your country?? I really need an answer You..??

You see.... this is why people are turning to Online gambling... they do not require a Clotshot passport to grant you entry into a brick n mortar casino. This whole vaccination drama is getting out of hand now.... with Pro Vaccine people making silly decisions like this and anti-vaccine people getting more determined to circumvent these stupid bullying tactics.  ::)

A day will come when these businesses will regret the alienation of a large amount of customers, when the truth behind the force tactics are revealed. They will feel the repercussions of these decisions in their pockets and Online casinos will close their doors.  ;)

the government in my country also does the same thing, there is no vaccination, there is no casino entry, the government in my country also requires vaccination for all its citizens, if there is no vaccination, going anywhere is not allowed, but after people who are injected with many vaccinations experience paralysis, I want to ask if in your country there are people who experience paralysis after being injected with vaccinations..

Offline casinos are now prohibited in my country.  There are special playable economic zones.  They are located in remote areas of my country.  The trip there will take several days. 

I do not approve of vaccination passports.  Why?  For example, I contracted the Covid 19 coronavirus in June of this year.  I already have natural antibodies to this virus. 

Why are vaccinations needed?  Why do I need a vaccination passport? 

In my opinion, this is a very dangerous tendency.  It's like digital segregation.

The newspapers should be picking that up, I had the vaccine too so how come that I'm not paralyzed? Those that have died because of the allegations that it was caused by the vaccine never had their other complications reported so as to incite fear among the population in vaccines.

Well I am already hearing some rumors and news as well that there are places, and establishments that already requires vaccination details when entering so I am not that surprised. I think this is already happening in the city not only in casinos. Here in our province, there is really no casino. Instead, they gamble in their friends house so there is no need for any vaccination details.

Not only casinos but every establishment in the world will require its clients and customers vaccination cards and people who choose to be unvaccinated will find themselves isolated or will not permitted to get out, this is very harsh but the authorities do not want another wave of the spread of CoVid, it's taking its toll on every country's economy and to minimize people from dying of CoVid.

Well if it's a way for a certain locality to decrease the number of infections in their area, or if it's just compliance on the casino's end, I would have no objections on that. We're getting closer and closer to regaining back our mask-less lives and reaching the normality that we are accustomed to, and if this is one way of reaching that goal then I will be glad to comply with it. It may be somewhat forced on our throats to show vaccination cards as proof of us taking the shot, but there's really no other way around this virus other than get inoculated and help achieve herd immunity.


That's a serious allegation. I have a comorbidity that makes taking the vaccine quite scary, but a few months after getting the full dose, I am not experiencing anything apart from the fever and chills that I had when the jab was still fresh.

As far as this might look like something that is suppressing people's human rights, the government has a duty to protect its citizens and currently we are faced with a deadly pandemic and  the only remedy we have against it is vaccination . And to be honest we all have different beliefs surrounding these vaccinations which might be tied to religious reasons or simply personal reasons but to protect the population they have to come up with something that will compel everyone to take the vaccine shot. Man kinds survival is threatened.

youre right bro, now the vaccination campaign is starting to be very intensively carried out by the government of a country and I see that vaccination continues to reap the pros and cons of some groups, especially from religious circles as happened in my country, many of them think that the content in the vaccine liquid contains a material that is contrary to their beliefs, so that many of them refuse to be vaccinated, I think the government should also approach various groups of people so that at least the vaccination does not create division in society.

The question is, is it true that Covid-19 is still spreading? this is not a business right? I have noticed that companies are also increasingly annoyed with the government's policy on the rubber bill, even though many companies have lost economic access during this pandemic.

Do physical gambling have to implement all of this, then lose a lot of visitors who incidentally are those who do not have a vaccine card.

We live in a different world these days and it seems like there are many different ways tried in an attempt to beat this virus. Variety is actually a good thing, as if these sort of schemes are successful at slowing the spread then more companies will adopt it and the world can recover faster. The customers playing here will feel better protected and continue returning on a regular basis. If it does little to stem the spread or turns off too many people then it will be unworkable, causing the casino to adapt their policies which will become the industry norm. In any major metropolitan area there will be several casinos who will have different entry standards, so I doubt this is overly restrictive to most people.

In my country gambling is prohibited by law, but like everywhere else we still have underground casinos. Naturally to visit such places does not require a vaccination passport as they themselves are outside the law. I have heard several times that in our country some people get their vaccination passport to travel abroad or at the request of their employer, but they do not get vaccinated. The low salaries in the medical field promote corruption even in this situation. 

Each government could really have their own take on how they would really make their citizens would able to have some vaccine via on leaving them with no choice thats why they are really setting these things up.
I wont be surprised if there would be more further decisions like these on where places will really be asking out first for vaccination card before you could enter which would really be leaving you no choice.
but actually it isnt really still a call for those who dont like to take some vaccine.We could still able to have access on others too but of course this would vary on the government on where you do live.

That's right, if you feel uncomfortable because you don't have a vaccine certificate, then there are online gambling that don't provide any conditions for the players. In the current situation online gambling is the best way, no matter how strict the rules out there are that only burden casino visitors. Just visit online gambling that is even more convincing or that you really trust to bet on.

That's what happening now, division from societies due to different views and understanding.

Religious belief influenced the most, as like what you have said, there are sectors from these institutions
think that there are certain materials that being used with the vaccines that violate their religions,

Government needs to take care of this and create more good advertisement to assure this kind of institutions
about the help that these vaccines bring to protect more people against this spreading virus.

It looks funny nowadays, vaccines are like a making business to get much money. In my country, vaccines are a requirement to enter the mall. I actually don't really agree with this kind of rule. I haven't found out which casino enforces this rule. Is it from the government or from the casino owner?

Indeed it is a guarantee for other comers, it will be useful. This decision is a little difficult, I think it will reduce the number of visitors to gambling houses and they will switch to online gambling.

I think that the manipulation so that people are vaccinated has no limits, nobody can force someone to have a vaccine, there is no law that forces people to be vaccinated and less for gambling sites, I am in favor of not to get vaccinated because I don't trust what they have developed up to now, in addition, for me the vaccine is ineffective because it does not give immunity and many who have been vaccinated have given covid-19 and have killed them.

If the traditional casinos are put with these restrictions to continue pleasing the governments and the WHO it seems to me that little by little they will fail. Regarding the payment of vaccination cards, it also exists in my country, what I think of all this is that they have developed the best business model worldwide.

I don't know why some members find this funny, it's not funny. The security guard are concerned about the health of everyone: you, the opponents and others who are their for the entertainment.
You may put other people's life in danger and even if you are covid-19 free, there is a high probability that a user may be positive and will spread the virus to other opponents. What happens if the house becomes compromised? isn't just the health alone that will be affected but the casino will loose customers which means low revenue.

That's because Covid has been playing around for too long. Even now is no longer the time, but to get the economy back on track. If watching a football match, are all spectators also asked for a vaccine card?
Look now PSG vs MCI match, they are fine. Try asking the OP in which country did he visit the casino? don't be too apathetic when everything needs economic improvement, the pandemic has passed, all that's left is policies that are nothing but business evidence..

^ But it does not mean you are oblique to get vaccinated, and you are being discriminated against by them via rejection. No one will force anyone to get vaccinated since vaccination is full of experiment and we heard different news that there someone died after vaccination. Get temperature check, facemask, and face shield and bring their own sanitizer are enough requirements to enter the house than having requirement of having vaccination ticket which is not good and we know there is a law regarding this that even government cannot force us to get vaccinated.
