这是前所未有的时刻，因为COVID-19大流行扰乱了公共卫生、社会互动和就业依恋。迄今为止的证据表明，失业率占劳动力的比例发生了广泛的变化。我们利用每月当前人口调查数据来研究从2020年1月到4月整个生命过程中就业状态的亚人口变化。2019冠状病毒病的低迷对生命历程产生了不同的影响。各个年龄段的失业和失业人数都在增加，尤其是年轻人，其中年轻女性面临的风险最大。交叉分析通过性别、受教育程度和种族/民族记录了共同的生命过程脆弱性。例如，20-29岁拥有大学学位的黑人男性因其他原因（nif -other）而不在劳动力市场的比例增加了12.4个百分点。在五六十岁的人群中，没有大学学历的人更有可能失业，这与种族无关。更多没有受过大学教育的60多岁和70多岁的亚洲男性退休了（分别增长了6.6和8.9个百分点）。疫情的影响很可能会挑战老年人延长工作时间的假设和可能性。
These are unprecedented times, as the COVID-19 pandemic disrupts public health, social interaction, and employment attachments. Evidence to date has been about broad shifts in unemployment rates as a percent of the labor force. We draw on monthly Current Population Survey data to examine subpopulation changes in employment states across the life course, from January through April 2020. COVID-19 downturns produced disparate life-course impacts. There are increases in unemployment and being out of the workforce at all ages, but especially among young adults, with young women most at risk. Intersectional analyses document conjoint life-course vulnerabilities by gender, educational attainment, and race/ethnicity. For example, Black men aged 20-29 with a college degree experienced a 12.4 percentage point increase in being not in the labor force for other reasons (NILF-other). Individuals with less than a college degree in their 50s and 60s were more likely to become unemployed, regardless of race. And more non-college-educated Asian men in their 60s and 70s reported being retired (6.6 and 8.9 percentage point increases, respectively). Repercussions from the pandemic may well challenge assumptions and possibilities for older adults' working longer.
