As #Covid19 cases rise in 30 US states, is the country undergoing a second wave or is the virus still only now reaching its peak in America?

Texas, Florida and California are among US states to have reversed or paused the easing of coronavirus restrictions as cases surged after lockdowns begun to lift.

The number of reported infections in the US has now surpassed 2.5 million and over 125,000 Covid-19-related deaths have been confirmed nationwide - more than in any other country.

Worldwide, the virus has been linked to more than 500,000 deaths, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore.
