The new director of the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ), Adriano Marques Ho, visited casinos last week to observe the implementation of new health measures designed to prevent an outbreak of Covid-19. The director met with officials from the six gaming concessionaires and sub-concessionaires, and explained the new measures to protect both staff and customers. As part of the new measures, any visitor entering a casino must present a negative Covid-19 nucleic acid test certification. Casino staff will also be progressively tested for the virus, however, they will not be required to repeat testing periodically. The DICJ has requested that casino operators clearly display these new requirements at the over 400 customer and 47 staff entries and exits to their premises.
