I think that for such a player, who has contracted tuberculosis, it is most likely not interesting to place bets alone, sitting in his apartment and actually being isolated from other people.
It is true that for many players it is very important not just to place bets, but to discuss them with other people. It is from such a discussion that, firstly, the decision on bets is made not only by the player himself, but also by a group of people with whom he discussed the bets.
Secondly, the player has someone with whom to discuss, one might say almost professionally, the bet that he is making. This communication can be even more important for a person than winning or losing in the game itself.
So this sick person is unlikely to be as comfortable and interested in gambling while sitting at home at the computer and alone. This game probably won’t replace a physical casino for him.

I also think that a person who has tubercolysis is something very delicate, and yes, I understand that he has to entertain himself but it is something that a Person like this must do to entertain himself. I would call him to read, not to make plays in the casino because the same frustration of the Illness can make you lose, because if you don't take good care of it, that illness can be very delicate, that's something that everyone thinks, I have a friend who had that illness and it lasted 5 months and he couldn't leave home, plus Since this disease is so contagious, he was always locked up in his room, the truth is that it made him depressed, and he didn't see how he could entertain himself, so as he came out of that disease, one of the things he did the least was think about playing, he was Very evil.

For someone dealing with an illness like tuberculosis the isolation necessary to protect others and manage their health can indeed make gambling alone less appealing and even detrimental. I agree with the suggestion to find other forms of entertainment that are less risky and more enriching during such a trying time. Important to focus on recovery and find joy in activities that contribute positively to one's health and happiness.

But if a truly gambler falls ill, for whom gambling is not just entertainment, but a part of his life, then it is quite difficult, of course, to stop gambling and do something else while sitting at home and without going out.
Well then, of course, only online games can partially brighten up the life of such a player. And of course, it is completely unacceptable to walk around and spend a lot of time in public places with such a disease. This can even be said to be a crime against other people who may become infected with this dangerous disease.
But isolation for six months or a year before recovery is still not so critical compared to the danger that such a player can pose to strangers around him.

I completely understand your point but the fact that he is a truly gambler cannot be an excuse for his irresponsible behavior towards others. Yes, he can make choices regarding his own health and life. However, he also risks the health and well being of others which is inexcusable. A responsible people would promptly take all necessary measures to improve their condition or ensure they do not infect others especially in crowded places. In such cases, support from relatives or friends can be extremely important. And yes it seems that he is just desperate.
