They're going to have to ban smoking, or they can plan on seeing much fewer customers.

VERIFY: Yes, cigarette smoke can carry the coronavirus

SAN DIEGO COUNTY, Calif. — As the coronavirus pandemic continues, more and more reports are surfacing about all the ways it can possibly spread, including the theory that the deadly virus can spread through cigarette smoke.

After being out on a walk, News 8 viewer Nan Jackson sent in a question: Can the smoke a person breathes out carry the coronavirus?

VERIFY: Can the smoke a person breathes out carry the coronavirus?

Smokers are breathing in and exhaling out whatever his or her body is carrying.

LOL they are also going to have to ban chips and money

Do not laugh, the money thing is already in the pipeline..

Even cards will need to be banned, though there are new waveable cards that do not need to be touched

The cards are replaced every game. The used cards are repackaged and sold in the casino gift shop same with chips. I never use actual money unless I'm cashing out. Even slots use paper.

Cash carries viruses been proven, so cash will soon not be accepted

They are talking about breathing. Smoke doesn't carry the virus. Breath carries the virus. Casinos might be a healthier place than the street. Those are powerful air cleaners and filters.

"According to Dr. Jyotu Sandhu with Sharp Rees-Stealy, if a smoker has the virus then yes, it is possible the smoke the individual breathes out does carry the virus. If an individual is in close proximity to a person smoking, who has the virus, he or she could breathe in that same smoke.

"That person is just expelling whatever they have in their mouth," said Dr. Standhu.

What about vaping? Does it carry the same risk?

The answer is, yes."

What about just plain breathing?

Yes, that's as deadly as poison gas.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Seems to me the best thing to do is just not breathe out- not sure what smoke has to with it- fucking idiots.

Apparently the smoke which hangs in the air longer, is a vehicle for the virus.

Noooo . It hangs in the air the same you can just see smoke. Your breath is the same temperature as your body which makes your breath warmer than the ambient temperature in an air conditioned casino. Your breath will hang in the air and slowly rise until the breath and smoke dissipates. All casinos installed heavy duty air cleaners years ago. That's why there is no cigarette smell. If anything the air in a casino is cleaner than in your home.

"That's why there is no cigarette smell. If anything the air in a casino is cleaner than in your home."


OMG, did you actually just say this ? Holy shit !!
I'm going to assume you're a smoker.

No. I've been to a lot of casinos.

I have too, and every single one of them, whether in Vegas, Reno, or any of the Indian gaming casinos in any state I've been to, EVER FAIL to wreak havoc on my throat, sinuses and lungs from goddamned cigarette smoke !
If you can't smell it, either you're a smoker, or you have the virus !

Yes, my thing here, is how cigarette smoke moves around and hangs in the air.

Way back when they were trying to make smoking in casinos illegal the casinos installed massive air cleaners. They are quite ingenious. The intake is along the ceiling and you know how high they are. The exhaust is along the floor so that smoke, coughs sneezes and bad breath are forced up and sucked away. Allowing smoky would violate so many employment laws no one could work there. If you smell something its the power of suggestion. You see those people smoking and think it has to be smoky

I was in a casino in Puerto Rico during a Bacardi factory tour. I took $100.... to lose, got up to $300 and walked out the door. I had about 4 killer meals on that rodeo ! I LOVE casinos. That was in about 1988. Casinos are for assholes.

The worst thing one can do is go to a casino and win.

Our local casino in Pittsburgh has smoking and non-smoking areas.

I think casinos will be in trouble. A huge portion of their customer base is over 60 years old, and a large percentage of that group will simply stay away due to health concerns.

Maybe in Pittsburgh. What would hit places like Vegas harder is loss of international travelers.

And did you notice this on that very website ?: "Designed to solve the gaming industry’s biggest source of customer dissatisfaction."

Look, I get it, some casinos go to a lot of effort to clear the smoke, but telling me the smell and effects of smoke are all in my mind, is absurd.
