South Africa.- Suncoast Casino will remain open despite the global Coronavirus crisis, but with additional measures put in place.

The casino will follow guidelines set by the President, who called on hospitality and entertainment venues to do more.

“We are following the guidelines laid down by the President, which calls on malls, entertainment centres and places frequented by large numbers of people to bolster their hygiene control. It is vital for the health of the economy that businesses remain open during the crisis and we will continue providing safe and hygienic spaces for our guests to be entertained,” Suncoast Communications Manager, Kelly Graham, said. 

According to IOL, some of the measures imposed by Suncoast casino to avoid the spread of Coronavirus include introducing medical-grade sanitisers at entrance checkpoints and other stations around the complex, deep cleaning with medical-grade sanitisers of all surfaces on the casino floor, in bathrooms and other areas, and educating staff and visitors about the virus.

Some events and conferences at the property have been cancelled to avoid attracting large crowds.

“The majority of these events are simply on hold pending the lifting on the ban on large gatherings of people. All our entertainment facilities are fully operational, with heightened hygiene measures in place,”Graham added.
