About 1 million restaurant workers in the United States are unemployed. What's going on?

The new coronavirus epidemic has had a "catastrophic" impact on the U.S. catering industry, with many restaurants forced to close permanently. AFP quoted the National Restaurant Association as saying that the restaurant industry is one of the hardest-hit industries in the United States by the epidemic, and is expected to lose $240 billion by the end of this year.

According to AFP, many restaurants in the United States have seen a sharp drop in business during the COVID-19 pandemic, and operators have been forced to close their stores in order to survive. Data from the California Restaurant Association shows that before the pandemic, approximately 1.4 million people worked in the industry, and approximately 1 million people were furloughed or laid off in the past four months. Data from Yelp shows that as of July 10, 26,160 restaurants across the United States have closed due to the epidemic, and 60% of them are permanently closed.
