Affected by the epidemic, the total retail sales of consumer goods nationwide in April fell by 11.1% year-on-year.

This double-digit year-on-year decline was last seen in March 2020 at the beginning of the epidemic.

Scenarios such as offline consumption and service consumption have been significantly affected, and the data in the Yangtze River Delta, Northeast China and other regions have fallen sharply, which has dragged down the consumption data in April.

Can consumption recover after the impact of the epidemic?

Will everyone cover their wallets and not spend money?

The National Bureau of Statistics gave a positive judgment.
