"We have instituted a Rivers Clean Team, cleaning ambassadors per se. They proactively clean the slot machines and the table games throughout the day. As well as if a guest is in need, if they feel safer or more secure to witness the team member cleaning a machine, they can reach out to the cleaning ambassadors and we make sure that the machines are properly sanitized," said River Casino Assistant General Manager Peter Longi.

Right now, the casino floor capacity is limited to 25%.
