Good thing these new cases are because of testing and more people are not dying.

To date, all three states combined have as many absolute deaths as NJ (Per 1M POP its not even close.)

If things continue as they are, by the end of today, NY will be knocked down from its top spot in number of cases.

Number of cases are irrelevant when comparing to NY. Try to compare fatality rate.

Also irrelevant. There are no numbers that can be compared, because they share no common circumstances. The variables aren't equal.

You can't compare positive numbers between CA and NY since at its peak, most in NY weren't tested

Is there a website which shows states' numbers to correspond with this?

This is based upon a seven day rolling average, of positive tests in excess of 10%, or number of positive cases exceeding 10 per 100,000 residents.

WHO is saying COVID19 won't be seasonal. https://twitter.com/i/events/1288401164300480513

Based on their track record, I guess that means watch out this fall!
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I think the difference this time is air conditioning. 
Traditionally, once the summer heat started, people congregated outdoors, or with the windows open and fans blowing. 
This time, the heat drove us all indoors to A/C.  This replicated the conditions  usually found in Fall as the cold drove people back indoors. A/C is increasingly available even in poorer countries.

This investigation adds to the body of evidence demonstrating that children of all ages are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection (1–3) and, contrary to early reports (5,6), might play an important role in transmission (7,8).
