It looks like the battle against coronavirus has put 1-in-7 Californians out of work.
A new federal count of initial unemployment claims shows 925,450 Californians seeking benefits in the week ended April 4. That’s down by 132,875 in seven days — but only because the previous week’s tally was revised upward by 179,598 to a record 1.06 million.
