Daniel Negreanu is a big supporter of the very important flatten the curve and Social distancing campaign to prevent the spread of the Coronavirus.

Now he demands that online poker should be legal in the USA until the pandemic is over as it would also help to make people stay at home as well as to have something to do in the quarantine.

“The government should, even just for this period, let online poker be legal. This would let people have something to do.”

Daniel Negreanu in self-quarantine

Daniel Negreanu and his wife Amanda Leatherman are also role models when it comes to dealing with the crisis.

They are currently in self-quarantine and well-prepared for what could come.

“The only real way to curb the growth is social distance”

“We are preparing for what we think is likely to come, which is the cancellation of lots of stuff.From what I’m reading, the only real way to curb the growth is social distance, keeping people away from each other. We’re bunkered up here in the in the house for the next — who knows how long?”

“We Should All Learn from Italy”

Daniel Negreanu is also absolutely right in saying that we should all be very carefull stay and home and learn our lesson from Italy. Italy suffers since weeks from a massive Coronavirus outbreak with 27,980 infected and 2,158 Death.

“We have the chance to look at Italy and understand that this could happen here too. About 2 weeks ago, they had somewhere between 500 or 600 cases. Now, they’re up to nine 28,000 cases. They started by quarantining 16 million people in the northern part of Italy. Now the whole country is under national lockdown. The only real way to fight against this is to start shutting down large gatherings. And that means casinos restaurants, and a lot of places are going to struggle.”

Terence Chain also calls for a renaissance of online poker

Daniel Negreanu already said last week that the 2020 WSOP very likely will be cancelled.
