    This poll does not disclose your handle.
    Wow, "Norman" of Midwest is a psychic. He assumed that casinos would reopen on June 1st. Yes siree "Bob", you are right. Connecticut's Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort Casinos will reopen exactly on June 1.
    So... please add on option#9 to your poll, and I will vote on it later. Thanks in advance.

    I don't believe polls can be edited. If they could a lot of the wording could be changed for the worse. Someone might make a non-disclosure poll into one revealing your handle. Boy, this could open I can of worms.

    Sammy, and Maverick it is good to see two long time veterans return from Wong's site. Let's see if my memory is right, Sammy and Freightman used to be involved in heated discussions among others regarding the worth of different variations of AP play. Maverick was a fierce competitor to say the least on the political page, who I think was also a super delegate, in a large state.

    I also will go back after they have a vaccine.

    A vaccine? It going to be a long time before a vaccine for the COVID-19. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) vaccine haven't even been developed yet and it is a coronavirus. There is better chance of finding a treatment than a vaccine (maybe Gilead's Remdesivir would help)

    Hopefully we'll have one in the first half of next year.

    This is a good read on the Covid19 vaccine outlook:

    As for me, I *might* go back to redeem some generous free play offers if they're infrequent, don't involve air travel, and are valuable enough.

    I won't go back for table games until there's a vaccine or a very reliable treatment. Remdesivir seems to help a bit, but it's not enough; kind of like taking Tamiflu for the flu.

    The Moderna vaccine discovery sound like a fake. How do they claim they found a potential vaccine when there is no clear data? These are supposed to be smart people. Shouldn't they looking at the data to make sure that it is definite before declaring?

    Maybe they are smarter than we think. After they announced the news all the top executives sold their stock.

    A vaccine is were we will most likely see results against SARS-CoV-2.

    As for Remdesivir, I am not aware of its effects as a PrEP against SARS-CoV-2. As for selectively targeting SARS-CoV-2, the current given research outlined on the Remdesivir wiki suggests that the molecule may reduce the duration of illness by a few day. No data found to suggest that it offers a cure.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remdesivir

    Also, it is currently being delivered by way of shots.

    From what I gathered (as to pertain to the SARS vaccine,) is that SARS-CoV-1 killed off its hosts too quickly for it to mount a successful pandemic and a candidate vaccine was not a product in dire need. Now, with SARS-CoV-2...that's a different story.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_vaccine

    Give a short summary of specifics of a theoretical vaccine(s) against SARS-CoV-2, with link descriptions on how specific therapies are to work as well as their limitations.

    tl;dr : buckle up. We may be in for a long ride here! Little blackjack is to be had, I'm afraid.

    I believe that SC, his auntie, & his mother might not catch Covid-19 if they did wear a N-95 face mask.
    Guess what I found? See below for better protection against the COVID-19. If you get infected even after all these protection, oh well. You did your best:
