I believe that online casinos will gain ground over normal casinos due to the negative effect that covid19 is causing humanity. Countries are taking security measures so that people do not frequent places of crowds. If we realize these contingency measures are replaced by online activities such as work, studies, entertainment, etc.
The effect on the gambling world of this virus will be enormous, in my country casinos were already ordered to close their doors and I can see this happening all over the world, many people also like to bet on sports and for the most part that is not possible anymore, so the only alternative left for those that want to gamble is to do it online but I suppose there is even a decrease in the activity of online casinos as people prioritize other things like buying supplies in the case of an even greater emergency.
What is happening now is just the tip of the iceberg. This virus is so contagious and there are probabilistic scenarios which claim that the outbreak can last more than a year and hundreds of millions may get infected. COVID 19 is manytimes more contagious when compared to similar viruses such as MERS and SARS. Expect total collapse of the world economy in the next few months. Under such circumstances, no one is even going to care about the casinos.
Don't forget those rich and elite people that can afford to follow their gambling habits.
But in case, they will be the only ones playing with each other.
Unless, one of them will be infected by the virus.
This pandemic truly affect our ways of life, not only in gambling arena.
