Most people stay in Vegas only for a short time, the casino floors are constantly being cleaned, slot machines are constantly cleaned and inspected, cards and dice are constantly discarded and rotated. Sure no masks and what may appear crowded is not really that, high ceilings, powerful HVAC heat exchange systems which bring air from the outside and overall low population density in the urban areas make Vegas seem actually a pretty safe place compared to say packed motels during Gra or Spring Break. P.S. on an anecdotal note about 6-7 years ago after BH USA I’ve personally witnessed a person that was all sweaty and coughing like they are about to die being escorted by security of the floor after about 15-20min of being around the tables. While I don’t have any sources on to confirm this policy, it really wouldn’t surprise me if casino security monitors people who seem to be ill if nothing else than to avoid the optics of having medics on the casino floor.

I remember being delighted at how 'spacious' walking around Vegas felt the first time I went. Malls were wide and walking through shopping areas never felt cramped like it often does here in Australia. I was really surprised; it didn't feel at all like I was expecting it to.

  Vegas is basically a collection of beached cruise ships. The large hotels want you to stay there, gamble there, eat there, and go nowhere else.

skeptic me thinks Vegas is mostly a cartel and these numbers might be made up.

  The US isn’t China or Russia while everyone is capable of lying on internal matters it’s much harder to do so in the US. No universal healthcare so billing data is available, local and state governments are do not answer to the federal government on most matters. Press is free and for the most part anyone is free to tweet what ever is going on without the fear of diving out of window.

    It seems like the US is committing the biggest lie right now by not testing for covid19. Before that one can remember the administration lying about weapons of mass destructing to get in a war. Need more?
