Just a guess, but USA has limited paid sick leave days or something right? Maybe that also has an impact? People just start going to work sick after a while, infecting even more people.
The US has 0 federally mandated sick leave days. Very few people care about covid anymore. I have always attributed the summer surge to the significant increase in travel when school's not in session.
