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.

She's right up Trump's alley. She'll be in his inner circle by the end of the week.

We all want to go back to 'normal' but the bills and rent are not critical when you're dead.

They need to fight for their lives and the lives of others andvkeep shut down until expert doctors say that it is safe.

Good for them! Vegas is the last place I would want to be right now! Obviously the Mayor is not the brightest. Are people actually going to go there right now?

ChrisCourtney4 Same person responsible for the homeless sleeping in parking lots with painted rectangles for social distancing? I love Vegas. Sounds like mayor is keen to roll the dice with other people’s money.

One of my favorite places is Las Vegas. If you haven’t been there, don’t go now. There is no way in Hell that this place can reopen. I feel for all the people who work there. But, dying is not the answer.

Lets be serious, who is going to go to a casino? Other minimum wage workers SMH !!! There are no tourists!!!

Hmm

Las Vegas mayor offering up the city to be a test subject. She's crazy and they need to vote her out.

Isn't it funny how it's always the people far, far away form the front lines that are ready to throw troops into battle. She'll be safe & sound in her penthouse.

Please help us to stop civil war in Rakhine state

If this keeps up Vegas is going to be worse than Detroit.

Las Vegas Mayor Offers Up Residents As Coronavirus Sacrifices In Unhinged InterviewLas Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman wants Vegas open for business again in spite of the covid-19 pandemic, and she’s willing to let people die to make sure it happens. During a 15-minute long interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper that can only be described as taxing and inane, Goodman made it clear that she not only believes Las Vegas is ready to get back to business, but she thinks the city could serve as a model by opening the casinos, hotels, restaurants, and shops. When Cooper suggested that this could turn the tourist town into a “virus petri dish” that would endanger Las Vegas residents and visitors alike, Goodman accused Cooper of being an “alarmist.” She seems nice. She’s bat shit crazy.
