The Nevada Gaming Control Board is rumored to possibly make it mandatory for guests inside of casinos to wear masks in addition to possibly banning smoking at table games. This is thought to be due to the increases in the virus in Arizona and Utah. No casinos in Las Vegas currently require guests to wear masks upon entering the property although some do offer masks to people coming in, whether they are staying at the hotel or not.
NO MASK or face covering protects anyone from this virus or any virus!
The N-95 mask is the most highly touted as the "best".
However, the manufacturers of N-95 candidly state:
WARNING! DOES NOT ELIMINATE EXPOSURE TO OR THE RISK OF CONTRACTING ANY DISEASE OR INFECTION. MISUSE MAY RESULT IN SICKNESS OR DEATH.
The N-95 discloses its suggested uses as:
>Grinding
>Sanding
>Sweeping
>bagging
>General maintenance
>Other operations that create dust
Many think surgical masks help but, again THEY DON'T and they tell you!
FILTRATION: DOES NOT PROVIDE THE WEARER WITH A REASONABLE LEVEL OF PROTECTION FROM INHALING SMALLER AIRBORNE PARTICLES AND IT'S NOT CONSIDERED RESPIRATORY PROTECTION.
It's time for people to WAKE UP!
Masks and face covering have NOTHING to do with PROTECTING YOU.
It's symbolic for "silencing you" and "controlling you".

That's two of us!
I walked into a store the other day and a worker told me I needed to put a mask on.
I asked, "why?".
The worker said, "it's the law."
I said, "no it's not."
She said, "it's a mandate."
I said, "no it's not."
She said, "it's a store policy."
I said, "that's better, now please stop spreading misinformation."
And then I asked her politely to help me find what I was looking for and she did... the mask was never an issue or talked about again and and she helped me professionally with a "smile".
A few weeks ago I had to have my car serviced for maintenance.
Unfortunately I forgot my mask which was mandated by the dealer.
I asked whether I could walk around outside the dealership for the time it would take to start working on my car up until the work
was done, and then for someone me inside the dealership could come outside so that I could give them my credit card
information and sign it.
I was told no that there would be no exceptions.
My first reaction was that I was a little pissed off because it is a 20 minute drive from my home and nowhere around to buy a mask.
It also meant that I had to reschedule my appointment until the next day.
On my drive home, I realized that what they did in denying me was the right thing to do in order to protect me and just as importantly
other people in the waiting room, showroom and in service area.
I went back the next day with my mask and got the work done.
Conclusion-the error was on my part, and the dealership/service was well within its rights to do to protect everyone concerned.
In retrospect it was a small price to pay for doing things the RIGHT WAY!

Dr Fuckface Fauci says masks are not needed, now masks are needed. The same guy who stated the virus is not a big threat to this country and now it’s oh my god we need to live in a bubble. Also the same guy who said we cannot shut down cities in the United States. Now it is we better be careful opening
That fucking guy is dumber than a bag of rocks. He farts and sticks out his finger to see which way the wind is blowing. We can all Monday morning quarterback like him. Idiot
Masks required now in Nevada
Las Vegas visitors, get ready to cover up. Travelers and residents in Nevada are now required to wear masks when they are indoors in a public place. That means visitors to the city’s dozens of hotel-casinos must wear face coverings, except when eating or drinking.
The order goes into effect 12:01 a.m. Friday.
“No shirt. No shoes. No mask. No service,” Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak said Wednesday in announcing the order.
Citing guidance from health officials, Sisolak said masks would be required whenever people are indoors at a venue other than a private home. California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a similar mask requirement last week.
Nevada’s state-wide order came as the number of COVID-19 cases is rising. As of Wednesday, the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services reported 14,362 confirmed cases and 494 deaths. In the 24-hour period included in Wednesday’s statistics, 365 new cases of the novel coronavirus were reported, the fifth highest number for a single day since reporting began.
Also, Caesars Entertainment on Wednesday launched its own mandatory mask policy. As the rule went into effect, security guards handed out face coverings at the company’s Las Vegas resorts. The requirement extends to all Caesars properties in the U.S. and Canada.
“Our intention is to talk to people at our properties who aren’t wearing masks, give them masks [and] ask them to wear them,” said Rich Broome, a Caesars spokesman. “If they continue to refuse, we would ask them to leave the property.”
MGM Resorts International announced masks would be mandatory for guests at all properties nationwide.
Nevada joins more than 15 states and the District of Columbia in issuing state-wide orders requiring people to wear face coverings. California, Washington state and New Mexico have orders in place, but not all orders are the same. Some require face coverings anywhere in public, others just at indoor or specific venues such as on mass transit.
Las Vegas started to reopen June 4 after casinos received a green light from health experts and the Nevada Gaming Control Board. Resorts have implemented new measures because of the pandemic, including placing Plexiglas barriers at gaming tables, requiring employees to wear masks and cleaning cards at the tables after each use.
Still, many visitors eager to party weren’t inclined to social distance or wear masks as they hit the pool or the bar.
L.A. Times staff writer Arash Markazi said he was mask-shamed when he visited Vegas. He reflected on the vibe in his story: “Welcome to the new Las Vegas, where the coronavirus pandemic is in the mental rear-view mirror of many visitors, and mask shaming is in vogue for some tourists trying to return to normalcy.”
