The Mexican state of Quintana Roo, where the tourist city of Canc\u00fan is located, is scheduling a series of reopenings to resume commercial activity. In turn, in Canc\u00fan, they announced that they are preparing to reopen the casinos.<\/p>\n\n
Since COVID-19 arrived in Mexico more than eight months ago, Cancun’s entertainment and gaming centers have been closed.<\/p>\n\n
While adapting to the health protocols, the 16 local casinos await the approval of the Federal Commission for Protection against Sanitary Risks (Cofepris), which must wait until the state has the Green Light to evaluate the reopening.<\/p>\n\n
At the same time, the conditions that operators will have to face to resume activity were announced. On the one hand, basic measures already known will be established, such as taking temperature, constant disinfection, mandatory use of face masks and installation of sanitary terminals with alcohol gel.<\/p>\n\n
On the other hand, the minimum distance between customers and workers will be guaranteed and, according to Meganews, the Blackjack and Paigow tables will allow a maximum of three players; those for roulette and poker, four; cards, six, and dice, eight. After four hours of continuous play, cards, tokens and dice will be replaced or disinfected.<\/p>\n\n
Another action to be taken is that casinos will be prohibited from offering food and drink services, unless there is an open air restaurant or bar.<\/p>\n\n
At the beginning of the year, when the casinos were closed due to the pandemic, the Quintana Roo Congress modified the State Income Law to exempt from taxes those who invest more than 40 million pesos to establish casinos in the entity in 2020.<\/p>\n\n
The local legislator clarified that as of 2021 beneficiaries will start paying their taxes according to the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
