The Mississippi Gaming Commission issued Industry Letter No. 2021-01 on March 4, 2021, rescinding three prior COVID-19 industry guidance letters and replacing them with updated operating guidelines for licensed casino operators. The guidelines include a 75% maximum occupancy limit, mandatory mask requirements in indoor public areas, social distancing measures, enhanced cleaning protocols with high-frequency touch-points sanitized at least every two hours, and guest symptom screening at entrances. Housekeeping services are limited to check-out only or upon guest request. These requirements take effect March 4, 2021, at 5:00 pm CST.
