Yeah idk how I feel about that considering middle America/rural America/the south were barely touched by the time the west coast and north east cut their numbers in the summer...

Yep. We’re still in our first wave. We never got cases down to a baseline low enough to show another wave. It’s just been one big ass steady wave in this country
2nd wave was in the summer when Florida and Texas were doing 14K a day. It was regional. This 3rd wave seems national.

London (CNN)The UK government has signed a contract for the first human challenge studies for the novel coronavirus, in which healthy volunteers are deliberately infected with the virus in a controlled setting, and some receive an experimental vaccine.
Up to 19 volunteers at a time will take part in the tests, to be held at the Royal Free Hospital in London, which houses a Biosafety Level 3 ward. They will be run by hVIVO, a medical research company that specializes in running challenge trials, in partnership with Imperial College London.
These clinical trials will be a little different from most.
In a challenge trial, by contrast, participants are deliberately dosed with virus.
Proponents of challenge trials say that they are more efficient, requiring far fewer volunteers -- likely in the hundreds -- because researchers know for certain that everyone will be exposed to the virus, and that they can deliver scientific data more quickly.
Critics worry about exposing people to a virus for which there is no fail-safe treatment, and say that the young, healthy volunteers are not representative of the wider population.
