Not even a complete pause.
There are still large tariffs on China.
The admin still added 10% to basically everyone.
De minimis is still scheduled to end on May 2 and result in large customs fees for direct-to-consumer purchases from China. Many sellers on Amazon are shipping from China (the ones that take 2-3 weeks to arrive).
The media has been particularly incompetent in describing the real state of the tariffs. They keep adopting Trump's inaccurate language.
They don't know how to do reporting anymore. They've been publishing press releases from the White House for so long that they literally can't have original thoughts.
