India that have passed the first wave pretty well are now getting hit really hard with a second wave, with hospitals crashing and unable to povide medical care to the poeple. This nightmare can happen everywhere if poeple will not understand that social distancing must remain until we have a cure or vaccin to the virus. Over here we have more and more sick people, but most of them are in mild condition, probably because the elderly still taking care of themslves and most sick people are young. I really hope it doesn't get out of control.

More casinos are opening these day in Las Vegas , more to come in the following weeks . Still , the restrictions are many , allowing short handed tables , 5 players on each , not good enough , but I believe things will go better in the future , allowing more players to play on every table , more games to take place . This , if virus spread do not get worse , cause then things will go back , bringing again isolation and closed poker rooms and casinos . Players , dealers , staff , all have to be casefull , followint the rules the federal government or the states impose for the good operation of casinos

I do not know what is happening in India in relation to COVID 19 but i read yesterday that several Indian soldiers were killed in clashes with the Chinese after being thrown from the top. It was a general fight between hundreds of soldiers. Anyway, the USA and Las Vegas will return to normal.

I also read this news for the conflict between chinese and indian troops , killing 20 indian soldiers , don't know for the chinese losses , really very concerning cause they are both nuclear powers . I read tensions have deescalated , I hope this is true .
Now , for the COVID-19 , I heard they had a new wave , a large number of new infections . The dead by this virus are over 12.000 , they have the 8th position in more victims worldwide . But inspite of this , they relaxed and uplifted alot of their restriction , leaving the complete isolation status . Really strange ....

It was the other way around. they eased the the restriction too early and got hit really hard with the second wave. Now they don't know if to put all the restriction back again or try to get through the wave somehow. In the Meantome, the situation there is getting worse by the day. Together with Iran and to some extent the US, we can see that the virus is going nowhere and we should not take it too lightly yet. Keep healthy and take care of yourself, wherever you are.

In my country, the state of emergency has been extended until August 20 because the fools have not sold all their masks worth several billion euros. There was no need for such a thing... ( most police officers in general did not even wear masks ).

The cost of the restaurants is far higher than all the masks sold. No country is having restriction to all mala, they do it because the cost of disaster, is happens is far greater than the cost of restrictions. All the world is trying to find the right path between free market and restrictions. Profile from selling masks is not part of the equation.

Anything against the population is part of this very horrible equation. Companies that sell masks belong to influential people ... Bookmakers and casinos opened on June 15 in my country. USA it remains number 1 to total games in this world and it is normal for them to open as well.

Nobody that sells masks are with high power. It is manufactured in China and sold though several distributors. Anyway, this is small change with the costs of either keeping the restrictions it removing them. Any mistake causes lists is billions is dollars. No need to look for conspiracies, especially not with the masks.

One of the problems with Corona that it can really hard the lungs irreversibly. For sports players this could even mean the end of their careers. Hope Nola is okay because I really want to see him brake records. And of course health to all the players infected.

Some protection measueswill help maintaining this spread of this virus under control , so casinos will be able to open all and people to work , players to start earnng their livving Protection measurres and everything will be fine . I hope all businessesopen again ,and above all , I hope we don't have a turn back to the worse isolations days , that woyld be awfull to happen globally . Ofcourse some will get infected in the future , without isolation it's absolutely normal , forcorona , for any virus or infection . Doesn't count the individual icidents , but the whole picture matters
