Gambling operators help in the fight against coronavirus
WHO (World Health Organization) recognized that the Chinese coronavirus is an emergency. As of February 3, more than 350 people have died from the new disease, and about 17,000 are infected. The virus has already appeared in many countries around the world. In these circumstances, any help can have a decisive effect on obtaining positive results in the search for a vaccine that will stop the spread of the virus.
Several gambling operators have made donations to help combat the new challenge facing all earthlings. In particular, we are talking about companies such as Melco Resorts and Entertainment and Meg-Star. Recently, through its own charitable association, Meg-Star donated one million two hundred and forty thousand dollars to fight the coronavirus. At the same time, a special fund was created in Wuhan (the area where the virus first appeared). The money is mainly intended for the supply of medicines and protective equipment against the deadly disease to Wuhan and Hubei.
Other well-known companies are also not standing aside and are ready to provide all possible assistance. Thus, over the weekend, a representative of the American company Melco said that the company is ready to allocate more than 2.5 million dollars, which will be sent to Wuhan. According to the company's executive director, his company, represented by all employees, hopes that these funds will help to cope with the new virus more quickly and ultimately stop its rapid spread.
Let us recall that at the moment, air traffic has been cancelled, as well as train traffic between China and many countries. Russia has also taken measures to minimize contacts with this country. The Russian government is taking all necessary measures to evacuate citizens who have found themselves on the territory of the Celestial Empire. All necessary means and opportunities are being used for this. In some countries (for example, the Philippines), a complete ban on visiting the country has been imposed on residents of the Hubei province.
