The Labor Department, in announcing the unemployment claims numbers for last week, said what Americans already knew – that layoffs hit the hospitality and food service industries particularly hard. Other industries that struggled included health care and social assistance, arts, entertainment and recreation, transportation and warehousing, and manufacturing industries, Labor said.

Light death((
Oh boy
Sad. 😕
My neighbor of 12 years is moving away.
The economy has tanked too hard and too fast because of the Corona Virus.
Rent won’t stop being an issue where I reside, *still* no free water.
Also, her son is in the Air Force.
Way to go!
😁👍 <-- (sarcasm) She is a very nice neighbor too. We respected each other and helped out when we could. She'll be missed. 😪 Under a "Flat Rock" in Michigan USA God be with us all. 🙏
Why are no test given for symptoms until your lungs can’t breath? Test should be given to everyone that’s sick.by time u get lung symptom may be too late.
It’s a virus not a bacteria. The only thing that can fight it is your immune system. Tests wouldn’t solve any issues.
There’s not enough tests to be handing them out to everyone like that. They’d waste millions of tests from hypochondriacs alone.
Doctors will more than likely tell you you’ll have it based on symptoms they cant actually see the virus
@Alex R testing before symptoms show helps the populace as that person will then quaritine themselvea and not pass it on. Because this virus doesnt affect you immediately as it sits in your system and spreads before actually triggering any symptoms. But again you seem stupid af for not doing research. So pls kys
@afshin choheyli they can still treat for symptoms. They can knock down the fever and try to open their airways. Not to mention that the person now knows they need to quarantine themselves if their symptoms are more mild.
You spoke to two people who definitely had it but didn’t go to the doctor? How do you know for sure that they had it? Because you have special powers and just know?
S Yee well, there are these very magical and helpful things called SYMPTOMS
flower s flu/common cold and corona have similar symptoms. it’s best to see a doctor.
Most will just be carries, totally unaffected. It’s just they spread it to those who already have overlying conditions. Not to say all normal people arent getting sick, but the vast majority are those with compromised immune systems. Most don’t even know they have it unless they are tested.
Here is 1/4 of Trump’s total vocabulary: tremendous, very good, amazing, unbelievable.
At least they’re mostly positive
“build a wall”
@Terry N u forgot beautiful lmao.
You forgot Incredible 😂
Yes, positivity really sucks. I so miss the glass is always half empty Obama. Blah
Money , money all in mouth of politics , soon there will be no people to use money ! Stay in home live 2 months on water and rice and all will be ok. But noooo my comfort is ruined and people move around but the virus has no legs , you are the legs. Stop for 60 days and be happy. The virus use stupid people and they will die first.
I want a pc of gum doc
Imagine getting the flu or even a common cold and THEN getting the Virus – your screwed because your immune system is already compromised.
Jacob umm i got a common cold 2 weeks ago, a fever of 104° but i recovered in 4 days. thankfully, i didn’t have the virus! hopefully nor me or my family get it’s, may we all stay safe and protected.
sick statement bro.
Wow you’re smart bud
28:40 presentation starts.
Thanks. I was getting bored.
Thanks so much didn’t want to listen to all this nonsense
Thank you.
Thank you. He always starts off with the same sentence, we are over it.
Omg
People are dying….pls be serious and takes serious steps to stop the spread or more people will die
No let’s go to Mardi gras
You people act like this is over with! We’re just getting started. But hey, let’s send everyone back because you people don’t want to look like fools for putting a timeline on a pandemic that we know very little about.
What a confident !!
28:50 beautiful day?
Yup you have the most Covid cases in the world now..
Definitely a beautiful facking day
They say that everything is fine thats their perspective but THEY HAVEN’T EXPERIENCED HOW MEDICAL FRONTLINERS THAT HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH
@IcedTea God Probably they don’t care what the medical staff goes through
CALL Pelosi & Schumer & China- that’s what we in the medical profession get for buying/total dependence on the cheapest gear! If we’d been making it in the USA all along there would be NO SUPPLY PROBLEMS🤬
Any day you’re alive is a beautiful day because it brings hope and that is what Trump brings. What idiot would look towards the president for health advice, that’s what your dr is for. If you’re going to blame anyone, blame China for letting this virus escape their country but I think that was the plan all along!
martinz1540 well said 🇺🇸
Need social distancing system every person maintain distance with another person approx 6ft if not lockdown done. Break the chain of virus and slow down the cases. take care all
