MGM Resorts Calls Max Vaccination Program a Success

MGM Resorts has become one of the latest hospitality and casino operators to have successfully incentivized its workforce into taking a COVID-19 jab. The company announced in August that its workforce would have two months to vaccinate or start taking mandatory COVID-19 tests if they want to show up for work.

The deadline set for October 15 has been met by what CEO Bill Hornbuckle reported was 98% of members of staff. While seen as “destroying personal freedoms” by some, the vaccination mandate in private establishments has been taken up and enforced the world over, with Macau’s casinos also demanding that their staff and visitors have a fully vaccinated status. Macau has had zero COVID-19 fatalities since the pandemic began, so they may be a good example to follow, too.
