Two more employees at the Gun Lake Casino have been tested positive for the Coronavirus.
Casino officials last week announced that one employee had tested positive and was quarantined. The two additional employees tested positive for the virus via routine testing and contact tracing.
One of the employees works in Stage 131, an entertainment venue and bar inside the casino, but the other hasn’t been on site since the business temporarily closed March 16. The first tested positive works on the table games supervisory team, but did not have contact with cards and chips.
Casino officials said the number of positive tests make up less than 0.25% of its total number of employees.
Gun Lake Casino is taking a series of steps in response to presumptive positive or confirmed positive coronavirus tests:
- “Team members with a positive test result are required to self-quarantine for a minimum of 14 days and receive a negative Coronavirus test before returning to the property.
- “All team members identified through contact tracing in close contact with a positive case are notified immediately, required to self-quarantine for a minimum of 14 days and remain off property until a negative Coronavirus test result is received.
- “Gun Lake Casino utilizes heightened testing requirements for all team members working in guest-facing roles. This higher volume, regular testing pattern further protects both team members and guests by providing early detection.
- “Gun Lake Casino has completed a terminal cleaning protocol for all key areas and will remain open and continue to monitor the situation.
- “The Allegan County Health Department and Tribal Health and Human Services (HHS) are immediately informed of all presumptive positive and confirmed cases.
- “Gun Lake Casino works alongside the Allegan County Health Department and Tribal Health and Human Services (HHS) to comply with all requirements and guidelines when informing the public of positive Coronavirus cases.”
E very employee who tests positive or is identified through contact tracing in connection to a positive case will be paid through a COVID-19 leave of absence policy.
It’s good to hear that Gun Lake Casino is on top of the situation and doing right by their employees.
I wonder how many false positives they’e had? Many of the test its are junk.
How many times have Dr. Fauci and others given conflicting information? What and who to believe?
How many times have Trump and his henchmen and women given conflicting information about the pandemic? (And continue to do so.) I would hazard a guess that Trump’s lies and alternative facts grossly outweigh anything offered by Dr. Fauci and the Task Force.
Ms. ManAville,
Your TDS is out of control.
I’m sure your vote will go to dementia/Alzheimers patient Joe Biden . I know a supremely educated person such as yourself cringes every time old Joe speaks, knowing he can’t put a complete sentence together. He has that blank look on his face like he has no idea where he is.
You need to know how much Dr. Fauci is worth and what stock he has in the companies working on vaccines. You may be “woke” after finding he’s knee deep into COVID19 more than we’ve been led to believe as an “expert”.
Cheers …..
