The Survey USA poll projects that 21 million American households are now falling further into debt due to the pandemic.
The poll indicates an acceleration of job losses from a similar survey released on March 19.
About 18 percent of the work force has been laid off - that's up from 14% in late March when many stay-at-home orders first went into effect.
Additionally, 24% of workers have now had their hours reduced - but that number hasn't changed much in the last couple weeks.
Survey USA interviewed 1,000 adults online nationwide on April 6 and 7.
