But then think of it. Casino is a common and usual place where people do often make contact not only by oral communication but also with touching bank notes, casino coins, and even dices and other things used in betting. Therefore, there is a huge chance that COVID-19 would drastically decrease the physical gambling and do somehow can change gamblers' physical gambling onto digital one. And with that, it can somehow increase the community of overall cryptocurrency.
I think the opportunity is only 50:50 (people who cannot do traditional gambling for fear of contracting the virus move to digital gambling) because many traditional gamblers also not know and not believe in digital gambling. at the moment there are many soccer bets that are losing money because of the postponement of various big matches such as soccer, basketball, etc. the impact of the panic that happened really greatly influenced the world of gambling.

At this point as the virus is a serious threat, it should be the government to act and make some decision to either ban or lock down the country we are living, travelling in different places will put as at risk and might also put other people's health at risk as corona virus does not show symptoms right away, we might think we don't have it yet but we might be wrong.
I strongly agree with your opinion, today the President of the Philippines (Duterte) officially announced closing the city of Manila and this is a good and fast step taken by a country leader, to reduce the virus from spreading to their city.
