https://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/first-time-jobless-claims-hit-881-000-marking-lowest-weekly-n1239138 May want to check your thesis Part of the reason for the dip is that the government changed the way it accounts for seasonal fluctuation in the labor market. The adjustment is supposed to yield more accurate data in the long run, but it also diminishes the significance of the weekly drop in the numbers released by the Department of Labor. Although President Donald Trump has boasted on Twitter of soaring job gains within the past three months, economists say this ignores the inescapable fact that the economy is still nearly 13 million jobs shy of where the country was in February — and the mom-and-pop businesses that are America’s primary engine of job growth are losing ground. |

Here in the US, one of the reasons so many schools are closed is because indoor cafes and bars are open. |
