I think what you’re seeing is exponential growth. Meaning, after crushing the curve, things start all over again with slow growth and then pick up again in 2 months. We are beginning to see the exponential growth explode in Arizona, Texas and Florida now I think.

I'm not sure how it's exponential, if you look at the graph for the current # of cases [0], then you can see it's more or less flat (and the new case %-age has been around 2-3%), between deaths and (most) people recovering, the number of active cases must at least flat and most likely getting smaller?

We will see, I would not bet on it but that is certainly possible.
