Operative words

'Economic activity contracted sharply and abruptly across all regions in the United States as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The hardest-hit industries--because of social distancing measures and mandated closures--were leisure' and hospitality and retail; manufacturers reported 'production delays, due to infection-prevention measures, and supply chain disruptions. Some other manufacturing industries, such as autos, mostly shut down.' Districts 'reported widespread mandatory closures and steep falloffs in demand.'
