Still the government needs revenue during this pandemic if the casino company has a license then it will be opened by following a very strict protocol, I am sure this must be a lot of enthusiasts because now many people are bored, so if the casino is opened again, the client will automatically enter to play. as long as it follows government regulations, in each country the casinos are permitted and some are not depending on their respective regions.
So far only the pandemic has stopped the licensed gambling industry and has seen some of them save on profit. Fortunately, industry and government are willing to work together to restart these activities according to health protocols.
Gambling activity is indeed very difficult to stop even during a pandemic because many gambler are very addicted and find it difficult to stop this activity. So complying with government regulation as well as health protocol is very important if the desire to gamble is difficult to control. Even though we are never short of online gambling site, physical casinos still have an visitors.
During the start of lockdown I also thought gambling industry would be so much affected, however I realize that some gamblers would really not stop just because of this, I think some are really comfortable in life and can really spare so much money for gambling while we are all in a pandemic. So online gambling is still going, and even more blooming because of the lockdown.
And I bet physical casinos still have visitors during this time, and it will be the same after this pandemic, I've realized cause some people are really not that affected and are still going out even with the risk. party, birthdays, and even with no reason, and I think it will be the same with gamblers, specially to those who are really addicted with. People still go out, and I'm sure new casinos will emerge in the future.
