That's not necessarily the second wave. It's a continuation of the first wave from the US nationwide perspective, because the US never had a major countrywide drop-off in cases or deaths that could be called the end of the first wave yet. In fact, the US seems to be holding roughly steady at 1000ish deaths a day, give or take, for quite a while now, with no giant move up but neither with a significant sustained move down. And while some could wonder if increased cases are the result of more testing, deaths holding steady and refusing to drop much can't be be tied to testing.
