Fed's Rosengren: Recent slowdown in economic activity to continue as states restrict activities

"With social distancing requirements, momentum toward returning quickly to full employment is fading."

"There has been a steady increase in Main Street loans as businesses and banks become more familiar with the program."

"There are currently more than $856 million in active loans, with more than $250 million settled."
