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.
Corona has really shattered the gambling economy since people are unable to enjoy casinos and bet on sports because no sports are being held anywhere in the world. We common people are simply ordered to remain at homes and people have right now many other preferences than gambling.
Unfortunately this was inevitable, this virus is very dangerous and now the effects not only can be felt in the health of those that have been infected but now also the economy is suffering, in my country many restaurants are on the brink of bankruptcy and this is because people do not really want to spend money there not only because of the virus but also because they are trying to save every penny and it is likely the gambling industry is also going to be severely affected by the economic crisis that is coming.
