Las Vegas Casinos Scared of Lawsuits

[Vishnu.Reang]

Also, there's chances that the one who file this lawsuit are only waiting for settlement.

Both sides needs to spend time and money while the procedure is moving, there's a chance that both lawyers
will bring their best offers in order to end it up much quicker, most of the time money speak louder than anything.

Filing lawsuits claiming discrimination and risk has become a very big business in the United States. The unethical lawyers encourage their clients to file lawsuits for the silliest of the reasons and then the judges will impose disproportionate penalties on the accused. If the business is small or medium-sized, then most probably it will go bankrupt. In case of the casinos, they have access to quality resources and therefore the other side may find going tough.

...maybe the best solution is to provide some distance for everyone from the entrance to the gaming table.

Still, they are exchanging cards, chips which are a way for people to transfer the virus. It is really hard to implement the protocols especially to these kinds of places. I think the best thing they could do is just follow the protocols the casino is implementing.

If we see what happens now in many places, people tend to don't care about the protocols. Many of them are not wearing a mask in the public area. The police and related organizations from the government always remind them to follow the rules and the protocols, and if they still break, people will get fine.

Places here in our province are so strict the reason why the people are really following the procedures, they are even requiring now people to wear face shields. Strict protocols might decrease their increasing cases, though this is still a casino, bars are available here so there are a lot of people influenced by alcohol, not following rules is really inevitable at these places.

I see that not many people are using face shields in the public area or local stores, but almost all of them wear a mask. But I think it would be good if the casino has rules that will ask the visitor to use a face shield besides wearing a mask. That can prevent the virus from spreading in the casino, and people should use those two things before they play gambling in the casino.

If strict health protocols can be applied in all places and people have the awareness to protect themselves, that can decrease the number of infected people. People will always care about their health while they are in the public area.

Face shields are ok and highly recommended but that doesn't guaranty that you are 100% safe because we are against an invisible enemy so this kind of case in court will not have a chance because people will have a hard time proving where they contacted the virus, is it really in the casinos or when they are travelling or a store, there is no exact place to pin point.

I guess that is why it falls to the hands of the people to keep theirselves safe.

Face masks and Face shields can protect us from being contaminated, wearing those could protect us but we can't say that these casinos are wanting to take those off for them to sue these casinos, right? It falls all over to that people is he/she disinfect his/her face shield and face mask when they go home. It is not the fault of the casinos if we will be basing that to what you've said.

Las Vegas Casinos Scared of Lawsuits ?? any company big or small are scared of lawsuits this means that they have to spend for their lawyers and take time to attend hearings or their representative and it might harm their reputation, but I don't think any case against  casinos about COVID infection will stand it's hard to prove where one gets a COVID, victims will have to prove their case.

All this is correct and in the end the individual who files the lawsuit may end up on the losing side. But it is going to take a lot of time and effort in fighting these frivolous lawsuits. And the worst part is that the American courts have a habit of handing down extremely heavy fines for the silliest of the reasons. There is widespread misuse of the judicial system, not just in the US but across the globe.

This is also another possibility after all the United States is home of the most lawsuits around the world, so it's possible that a person that gets infected with coronavirus is not really trying to prove that he got the virus on the establishment of the casino, rather they are trying to obtain some money out of it and the casinos could decide that it is on their best interests to just try to settle with that person out of court, but if enough people begin to do this then they may have no option but to try to prove their innocence in a court of law.

This is true and at this point of time only thing is that we can do is to take extra precaution and try to maintain the distance wherever possible. Now one must be extra careful as lockdown has started to open so people are everywhere and thus the chances of spreading the virus has increased more than before.

Face shiels aren't really 100% protection for the COVID-19. In some studies, if a person is not very organized on his/her things, getting contact with COVID from those shields is still possible.

Your safety doesn't depend on what you wear, it depends on how you manage yourselves on things that can be easily contacted by the virus.

If you going out especially if you'll be proceeding to closed place like gambling casinos bringing your protected gear is a must,

As you never know who's the carrier from many people that you'll be meeting and interacting from places to places, as this lockdown
already been ended and people are now freely moving everywhere you need to protect yourself, no government can help you if you are
careless with yourself.

It does not protect 100%, but at least it could minimize the risk, otherwise, why would authorities requires us to wear this?

As long as you follow the protocol, I guess you'll not face any problem, but you know going in a casino, you meet different people that are strangers to you, of course the risk is high, so if you can't take that, better stay at home and don't get envy seeing other people going in a casino.

Even how strict a place on implementing these quarantine health protocols it would really be still hard for it to be stopped knowing that there are people who are
asymptomatic which can really possibly spread up the virus without noticing it.Scanners and alchohols wont really be enough for such measure this is why there
should be at least some consideration with casinos in regards to this situation since it cant really be stopped completely no matter how strict they are on implementing
rules.Casino or  business owners would really took the risk of these lawsuits as long they would able to operate because it isnt really that sustainable if it
would last for too long.

Yups because why need to admit that the virus is acquired thru casino houses when they can just deny having it?
there are many cases that infected still hanging around because they have no symptoms but the problem is they can spread the virus without even noticing that they are carrying.

As long as Las Vegas casinos do not violate the regulations set by the government, there is no need to fear lawsuits.
If proven guilty and violating the established rules, of course, Las Vegas casinos must accept the consequences.
Therefore, always obey the applicable regulations if don't want to be subject to legal prosecution.

Casino's need money now thats why surely they are following every small details assigned by the government and they will never violate it for them not to received law suit or being force to locked again.

Casinos count as a high risk place because a lot of people gather together indoors. But if we could increase the social distancing, make everyone wash their hands and use face masks, while get better air filters in casino. Similiar filters the airplanes are using - there are also a lot of people even closer together than in casino. We should be able to have atleaset some games open in the casinos. I think the risks of casinos to cover any lawesuits on their own is too big. We should help out the casinos in these difficult times. How could we even confirm a 100% that you got infected in the casinos, and not on the way to the casinos, in the plane for example? Or at a restaurant close by?

It does not protect 100%, but at least it could minimize the risk, otherwise, why would authorities requires us to wear this?

Right now authorities don't know jack shit, nor do they care. All they do is trying to keep people from freaking out. I am not saying masks are useless but people think they are invincible as long as they wear a mask which is funny.

Of course this virus does not only infect through respiration, but there are many media that can spread this virus to other human. Indeed, the mask used are not fully protected from viruse but mask also have many function to prevent spread from the air.

Unfortunately, many people think that they will avoid the virus just by wearing a mask, even though they do not comply with other health protocol which are also the reason many people are infected with the virus such as visiting physical casinos without complying with existing protocol, shaking hand with many people without washing their hand and so on.

The casino doesn't want to lose the opportunity to re-opening its business again, so they will do everything that the government suggests without any excuse. Perhaps, the casino will deny some people who want to enter their place if they don't follow the rules because the casino has a responsibility to take care of all people. If the casino can have persisted in these situations, I am sure that the casino will get their members back to them. While they follow the rule and invite more people to comes, they can recover their loss a few months ago. And soon, they will rise again as before.

You can get the virus no matter how well protected you are especially if you do dumb stuff.

What I was trying say is, when you wear a mask you reduce your risks of getting the virus but that's if you only get out of home to do your groceries. If you wear a mask and go to a rock concert or join protests where people are way too close to each other, your mask won't protect you from your own stupidity.

Yes, you are right and doing stupid thing like that will only bring disaster in the end. I think everyone should be aware of this threat and they should look after themselve as best they can. Visiting a physical casino will also increase the risk of infection as we never know who is infected around us if they are not showing symptom.

[FontSeli]

I just don't understand how you can prove in court that a person contracted the disease in a particular casino?
You can hold casinos accountable if they do not comply with the required health laws. However, these are different things in my opinion.

[FlightyPouch]

I don't even know how will they prove these casinos to be the reason these people got the virus. It might be their fault why they are even have the virus. I guess this really falls into the psychology as @Janation said, if they got the virus they tend to blame someone or anyone. As far as I know these casinos are following the protocols, it is the people that are not actually following it.

I agree but if one of the staff gets infected then they have no choice but to fully disinfect the whole playing room and quarantine some of the staff and those who are involved in the operation, and the players also need a quarantine, but that does not mean the staff got it in the playing room, he is commuting going to groceries and meeting some friends we never know because the virus is invisible.

Yeah, at the end of that answers we are still looping at that statement that these customers can be contaminated at other places too, doesn't mean they are working there, means that they are contaminated at that area. They might get that virus going home while commuting or maybe from a grocery or store they bought something.

There are a lot of things to consider that is why this is really hard to investigate.
