The United States Department Of Labor released more staggering filed unemployment numbers today, 1,877,000 to be exact, bringing the number of workers unemployed by COVID19 up to 42 million, but it’s the number of people actually collecting unemployment that’s more concerning at this point.
Those receiving insured unemployment from their local states only total to 22,446,250 out of the 42 million filed so far in over a 4 week period across the United States, and since the 6.6 million filed for unemployment, the number of filings have been trickling down.
