“The different sectors of the economy, with a month in advance, have to submit with the Ministry of Health proposed safety guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19, but the reopening of casinos and other establishments with slot machines has not been authorized yet,” Walter Martos told local media when asked about the gambling industry.
