Las Vegas workers push back after mayor's call to reopen casinos and hotels.
Jay Blake, who works in a VIP lounge at a Las Vegas casino, said he understands Goodman's eagerness to return to normal, but he does not think she “put a lot of thought into what it could mean if we reopen too soon.”
“Vegas is a unique destination in that we rely on guests from all parts of the country, all parts of the world," he said."I’m concerned if we open to everyone, [there will be] people coming from hotspots, places with outbreaks, where social distancing wasn’t as stringent as it was here.” Blake said the casinos must develop plans in which “sanitation takes priority,” including regularly cleaning dice and cards and limiting foot traffic in elevators and bars and at gaming tables.
