The 7 day moving average for new deaths may have peaked Nov 25th at 1,712, though Thanksgiving might give a bit of a bump. The high for the first wave (7 day moving average) was 2,259 on April 21st during the initial wave.

A little over 35% of the US has already been infected at a .23% infection fatality rate. That's half way to herd immunity already. That is already a natural drag on the spread rate compared to when the virus first hit. That natural drag will only continue to grow as more people are infected or immunized until we reach herd immunity at which point the new infection rates will start naturally falling even if there were no artificial measures taken to slow the spread.
