Ct plans to reopen 5/20 but it was on the news that the casinos will be further down the road. I think they have so many modifications to make that is probably. 5/20 is a very limited opening. For instance only restaurants with outside seating. The rest will have to remain takeout

Anything new on casino plans for smokers? Smoke is not a gas but rather a substance capable of carrying moisture from a smokers lungs. Sounds highly capable of transmitting a virus to me. Anyone know the true story on that? If possible then 6ft, 6yds.,etc. becomes meaningless.

Looks like Wynn & Venetian could be first, but Lakeside in Tahoe and Diamond Jack in Bossier are gone for good :-(

Absolutely smoking will help transmit the virus. Simple physics can prove that. But as far as I know, most casinos that allow smoking plan to continue to allow it.

Indiana is banning food and drink on the floor, but only is banning smoking at table games. Smokers are too valuable to their bottom line obviously...

Have,since my post, found several articles confirming the transmission capability of smoke.
My home casino has stated no concern about this and plans to continue to allow smoking!
"Bottom line" trumps health concerns.
