3.3 Million File For Unemployment Claims, Shattering The Record »

npr:

A record 3.28 million Americans filed for unemployment benefits last week as the coronavirus pandemic shut down much of the country. The Labor Department’s report Thursday was one of the first official indicators of how many people have suddenly been forced out of work nationally.

“This marks the highest level of seasonally adjusted initial claims in the history of the seasonally adjusted series,” the department said. “The previous high was 695,000 in October of 1982.” The Labor Department’s records go back to 1967.
