until 置于句首

Their younger peers had a bit more luck, beginning their careers in years when tightening labour markets had pushed up wages. Until, that is, the covid-19 pandemic upended many of their lives.   

请问一下老师,这个that is在这里是干啥的?

until从句是对前面句子的谓语had a bid more luck的补充。即说话人说完前一句话之后,经过思考,又补充了一个时间状语。that is是插入语。意为即、也就是说。在这里可以不翻译。
