As a result of the pandemic, there are now 30 million unemployed people in the U.S. That is 10% of our population! We compared it to the Great Depression. In the 1930s, unemployment in the U.S. climbed to 25%! We compared the times and the circumstances. We concluded our look at current events with: some (but not all) Americans are beginning to return to parks, beaches and the great outdoors, "murder hornets" arriving on U.S. shores, and a young woman currently rowing across the Atlantic Ocean.
