政府每周申领失业救济金人数首次低于200万人，但总失业率比预期更糟

上周申请失业保险的人数总计187.7万人，这表明最糟糕的失业时期已经过去，但失业率仍然居高不下。这是自3月14日以来，政府每周申领失业救济金人数首次低于200万人。经济学家预计，失业率将下降830万，失业率为20.5%，但是这仍然是大萧条以来最高水平的两倍多。

The number of people signing up for unemployment insurance totaled 1.877 million last week, suggesting the worst of unemployment is over, but the unemployment rate remains stubbornly high. For the first time since the week ended March 14, weekly claims fell below 2m. Economists expect the unemployment rate to fall by 8.3 million to 20.5 percent, but that is still more than double the highest level since the Great Depression.  source
