The first and only 2nd wave I have seen so far happend in Iran.

In the USA some staates are behind the 1st wave (New York for example) and others are awaiting it (California, Florida, Texas for example).

China has no room for error, US can relax lockdowns due to low population and high hospital capacity.

Hope vaccine is coming soon.

Managing Covid 19 seems to be done at State level. The Fed Govt led by Trump seems to have given up.

Yes.

But I'm making the point that the number of new cases in the USA is still running at two-thirds of the observed peak.

All the headlines in the USA are talking about how the 1st Wave is gone, and the risk of a 2nd Wave.
But the data says that the USA is still stuck in the 1st Wave.

If you look at the graphs from China or Europe for example, you can see far more dramatic reductions in the number of new infections.

BEIJING, June 13 (Xinhua) -- A total of 46 people have tested positive in throat swab COVID-19 tests in Beijing, after authorities conducted city-wide nucleic acid tests in wholesale markets of farm produce and large-scale supermarkets on Friday, authorities said Saturday.

Of the 517 samples collected from Xinfadi, Beijing's major wholesale market, 45 were found positive in throat swab tests, Pang Xinghuo, deputy head of the municipal disease control and prevention center, said at a press conference on Saturday.
