Crown Resorts, one of the leading entertainment and gaming groups in Australia, is going to implement “social distancing” at its Melbourne casino in response to the coronavirus epidemic.

Crown said it would take steps to keep gamblers, which include switching off of every second gaming machine and electronic table, prohibiting standing players at seated table games and limiting the number of players at stand-up table games to five.

The company will also put a limit to the maximum number of patrons in its banqueting and conference facilities to 450 people.

The practice of “social distancing” has been adopted by several countries, halting sporting, cultural and religious events.

Crown said that it has also implemented other measures at its Melbourne and Perth properties, including greater frequency of cleaning and the provision of hand sanitiser.
