     throngs of tourists and revelers left their homes over Memorial Day   
   weekend, public health experts braced for a surge in coronavirus   
   infections that could force a second round of painful shutdowns.   
      
   Two weeks later, that surge has hit places like Houston, Phoenix, South   
   Carolina and Missouri. Week-over-week case counts are on the rise in   
   half of all states. Only 16 states and the District of Columbia have   
   seen their total case counts decline for two consecutive weeks.   
      
   But instead of new lockdowns to stop a second spike in cases, states are   
   moving ahead with plans to allow most businesses to reopen, lifting   
   stay-at-home orders and returning to something that resembles normal life.   
      
   “There is no — zero — discussion of re-tightening any measures to combat   
   this trend. Instead, states are treating this as a one-way trip. That   
   sets us up for a very dangerous fall, but potentially even for a   
   dangerous summer,” said Jeremy Konyndyk, a senior fellow at the Center   
   for Global Development who oversaw the U.S. Agency for International   
   Development’s Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance during the Obama   
   administration.
