摘要翻译：
本文利用美国劳工统计局的就业和工资数据，研究了截至4月中旬新冠肺炎危机对美国工资的分配影响。它回答了低工资工人的工资是否比其他人下降得更多，以及下降的程度。我们发现，新冠肺炎疫情加剧了现有的不平等。3月中旬，最低五分之一的工人到4月中旬被解雇的可能性是高薪工人的三倍。最低五分之一的工人周薪在2月中旬至3月中旬期间平均下降6%，3月中旬至4月中旬期间下降26%。在2月中旬至3月中旬期间，较高五分位数的平均降幅不到1%，在3月中旬至4月中旬期间，降幅约为10%。我们还发现，16-24岁的工人比年长的工人受到的打击要大得多。西班牙裔工人受到的伤害也比其他种族群体更大。他们的工资在3月中旬到4月中旬之间比其他工人的工资下降了2-3个百分点。

英文摘要：
  This paper uses Bureau of Labor Statistics employment and wage data to study the distributional impact of the COVID-19 crisis on wages in the United States by mid-April. It answers whether wages of lower-wage workers decreased more than others', and to what extent. We find that the COVID-19 outbreak exacerbates existing inequalities. Workers at the bottom quintile in mid-March were three times more likely to be laid off by mid-April compared to higher-wage workers. Weekly wages of workers at the bottom quintile decreased by 6% on average between mid-February and mid-March and by 26% between mid-March and mid-April. The average decrease for higher quintiles was less than 1% between mid-February and mid-March and about 10% between mid-March and mid-April. We also find that workers aged 16-24 were hit much harder than older workers. Hispanic workers were also hurt more than other racial groups. Their wages decreased by 2-3 percentage points more than other workers' between mid-March and mid-April.
