The Marina Bay Sands casino resort in Singapore, which closed for “deep cleaning” last month after two workers tested positive for Covid-19, reopened May 19 with a new, two-person limit at gaming tables.
According to a statement from the property, “Other employees who are close contacts” of the two infected workers had been instructed either “to stay at home and monitor their health,” or be “placed on quarantine.”
“We will continue to be vigilant on all fronts,” with “stringent cleaning regimes, safe-distancing measures and an enhanced Covid-19 testing regime for staff,” said the property, as reported in GGRAsia.
“The integrated resort is operating based on revised capacities and stricter safe management measures across property till 13 June 2021, in support of the government’s latest efforts.”
Singapore saw a surge in infections last month and returned to Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) measures to combat it.
“Our friendly Safe Distancing Ambassadors will be roving around the property to remind guests of these measures,” said Marina Bay Sands.
