I am glad that this vaccine was invented and will soon be produced in Russia. They will not set a high price for the vaccine, because the Russians are always ready to help others.

I hope so because if ever, they are the first country that will release the vaccine, so people will look into them as a good country.
Russia badly need the vaccine as soon they will reach to 1 million number of cases,..

Russian countries can be a very good example, even though they have great combat equipment and there are some countries that do not like Russia but Russia can show its existence which helps well to all countries, hopefully the drugs created by Russia can provide healing for all countries .

Coronavirus vaccines are now needed all over the world, because people are tired of being afraid and sitting at home in quarantine. Sports matches are being held, restaurants are opening, and people are going to Las Vegas again. All this can lead to a new wave of disease. The vaccine will help prevent all this.

The vaccine is indeed needed because there is no way one of those open casino, restaurant etc wont break the social distance and the good hygiene rules.

Setting the negativity aside, i dont know where you guys got the information about Russian producing COVID 19 vaccine because theres no such information from the CDC and WHO also disclaims such activities.

They are confident, they are underestimating the virus.

They are underestimating the virus though but some people still going outside to do an errands to sustain their needs. No one is safe actually until the vaccine release globally. Once vaccine is out people can go to the casino but these days government allowed businesses to open. Must follow the precaution to be safe from this pandemic era.

We can't blame them though. People thought that they are strong enough to fight the virus since the recoveries worldwide is around half of the total cases and the mortality rate is low that is why they are underestimating it. I can't blame those people too who really wants to go outside because of boredom and some errands like you said.

Until there is no vaccine, there is no safetiness of the people is low unless you have a good immune system then you can fight the virus with yourself. Even though the vaccine is out, I doubt that gamblers will go to the casino immediately. They will wait for weeks to months I think before they will return or they will just gamble online.

Firstly, if the reopening of stores, casino and business is not very important the government wont have allow it, remember Las Vegas Mayor (Carolyn Goodman) once ask for the reopening of casino because the quarantine wasnt completely the solution but she was rebuked by people and by the Nevada leaders.
Second, this is not the act of underestimated the virus but saving ourself from something that could give than the virus itself.

We understand and know about it but for those people that doesn't have important things to do, they don't have to go out. But as for gamblers, we know it that they have to go out as we're not all the same that can allow ourselves stay in the cave for a long time.
Kudos to those scientists that are doing everything they can to create the vaccine.

For sure that all of the casinos in Las Vegas have strict protocols when it comes to social distancing in order to prevent the spread of the virus. There are a lot of gamblers around the world that are now starting to go again in casinos because for sure they got bored in their home in these past months because of the covid but they should not be happy in this current moment even though traditional casinos are now open because covid 19 is still a threat for them and they can get it from casinos if there will a asymptomatic gambler there. When the vaccine will be invented, for sure many people will encourage to go in casinos again.

We all thought that is whats happening, but it isn't.

The fact that we are seeing increasing cases in Nevada means that the reopening of casinos is the cause of it. It is said that even bars are open making social distancing harder to implement. If this continues, for sure we might face the 2nd wave and that would be harder since it would obviously immune to medicines that hey are using right now.

But since Russia is said to discover the vaccine, we just need to wait for it to be produced since their country needed it too.

They do and that's assured.
Once a gambler will always be. So those folks that missed the casino due to the long time of quarantines, they will comeback no matter what as long as the government allows them to come and the casinos to operate again.

Since gambling is an activity that attracts a lot of lower income individuals, I would be curious to see how the industry will perform in the future.

Why lower income people, its really for everyone depends on which type of casino they are playing.Some people bet with few bucks and some others in few millions when it comes to poker tables and in future as well the thing will remain the same.

[ShowOff]

Since gambling is an activity that attracts a lot of lower income individuals, I would be curious to see how the industry will perform in the future.

If you are a gambler then you surely know that every day, every hour, every minute and even every second there must be people who bet all over the world on gambling. Online gambling site and physical betting alway benefit a lot of loser gambler all the time and that is why gambling has never stopped until now even in the future.

Gambling has an important role in a countrys tax revenue "if the countrys gambling status is legal" and the government can continue to give permit to new physical gambling site or casino so that their tax revenue become greater. So I think the gambling industry has never been abandoned by gambler because this industry is a place that makes money both for gambler, site owner and the government and it will survive even in a pandemic.

Gambling industry is a great factor in the economy because most of the casinos are million dollar investments which contribute huge amount of tax in the country that the government using in order to help the victims of the pandemic like those people who lost their current job but there is a problem and it is the virus which keel spreading through crowded casinos like in Vegas. I saw a lot of pictures in Vegas that there are a lot of people who are not wearing masks inside the casinos because they keep saying that it is their rights. The traditional casinos are operating again but for sure it will lead to increase of infected covid19 person especially if there will be a certain gambler in there that can be asymptomatic.

I think those gamblers don't think too much about the virus that is currently spreading widely, they just want to think about how to grow money quickly and can have fun like it is free. whereas in a gambling place when not opening a business there will be no income and will bankrupt the gambling owner.

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?.

That is one scary decision. They are like opening for the sake of having profit but not thinking about the gamblers health. Even though some gamblers does not care about that, it is still a risky decision. The pandemic is very deadly and should not be taken lightly BUT if Las Vegas Casinos only let people play who are within Hotels near their own casinos with no record of being exposed to the Virus, then I guess that is a possible situation where you can open the casino to those people.

They will continue to grow, Las Vegas as one of the biggest earners in the world of gambling is not attractive for lower income individuals as it's an expensive casino, a classy one where you have to spend, maybe what you are referring is the lottery owned by the government, there, betting a penny is possible, but not in vegas.

Can't read the whole article but I read an article that says casinos are actually having profits amidst the pandemic but I guess I read that wrong. I guess they should stick to online or live betting now so that workers can stillcdo their jobs and avoid more contacts to people that would also lessen the contamination of the virus.

Despite of the opening, they still didn't meet their expectation, but I guess this figure reported are only the amount of target prior to the pandemic, so obviously they can't hit that as not everyone are going out to play, only few will.

So the question here is, are they still operating profitably?

The pandemic is still going strong on many countries, the United States included and measures are still being taken so that less and less people will be infected with the virus. Las Vegas by now should have already set up protocols and measures to minimize if not eliminate the chances of getting infected in their city. We all know that every day that passes is a big big loss in the income of the city, and they need to do something about it. Otherwise, they might need to reevaluate their chances of surviving in a desert city.

I haven't seen the figures for overnight in Sydney or Melbourne, but it looks like the second wave is slowly growning - If Sydney doesn't pay attention it'll end up in a similar re-lockdown and mandatory wearing of facemasks in public as Greater Melbourne and the Mitchell Shires are having to endure.

I am no expert but we have seen so many "second" and "third" waves coming in, in many cities. Even in some areas here in Luzon, the areas where there were no cases for 3-4 weeks suddenly had spikes and the local government of these cities and provinces are requesting the national government to put them back to total lockdown status. This is really worrying in our modern society where there is trade and business and people need livelihoods to survive. I don't want to think black and white but it is becoming a "this or that" scenario. Either we starve a bit (not die, i don't think governments would allow that) and moneyless but not sick, or be able to go to work and get the disease that might kill you.
