What you will learn:

  • Five of the tracker’s six dimensions rose in the final week of May.
  • Regional recoveries maintained an encouraging trajectory through the final week of May, according to our State Recovery Trackers (SRTs).
  • All regions except the East registered higher SRT readings, with the Southwest and Mountains recording the strongest advance.
