Taking the Gamble

As someone who used to go to Las Vegas often, I'm curious about what it's like these days when The Pandemic is over as far as some are concerned, no matter what some experts say. I have no plans to go and find out for myself and after reading T.M. Shine's report on Las Vegas, I'm more confused than ever.

In the meantime: The White House COVID team put out a list of "Select High-Burden Core-Based Statistical Areas" and Vegas was numero uno as "the nation's worst metro area with more than one million people for transmission of the coronavirus." The Las Vegas Advisor reports: "Masks are now recommended, though not mandated, for everyone in Las Vegas and several casinos, including the Venetian and Westgate, are now requiring all employees to wear masks again."
