The Venetian/Palazzo, which will remain closed at least through May 31, has
unveiled an 800-point plan for keeping guests and employees safe when the
doors reopen in June. The protocols start with thermal cameras at every
entrance that will check body temperatures of guests and staff; anyone with
a temperature higher than 100.4 degrees will undergo a secondary screening
and be directed to appropriate medical care if necessary. That medical care
includes a team of 25 emergency medical technicians, with eight on duty at
all times.

The suite of any guest who tests positive for COVID-19 will be removed from
service and undergo cleaning by a third-party expert. All the suites will come
with hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes, plus latex gloves and a personal
face mask that guests are welcome to wear on property, though masks that
hide the entire face won't be allowed. Electrostatic sprayers will apply hospital
grade disinfectant on high-touch surfaces during off-peak hours and UV lights
will decontaminate shipments arriving and leaving the resort’s receiving docks,
mailroom, and warehouse and will be used on hotel equipment like baggage
carts. Employees will undergo COVID-19 safety, sanitation & response training
and will wear protective equipment according to their responsibilities.
Finally, only four passengers will be allowed in elevators and on gondolas.
