Sweden, the United States, Kuwait, and Brazil all look bad in terms of new cases per week and rate of growth

As shown in the chart below (for the week ending 6/27), whereas most of its peers are in the bottom-left quadrant of this chart, the United States has a much higher rate of new cases per week per 100K population and faster week-over-week growth of that new cases rate.

Note that if you are comparing this table to the chart above, the statistic being displayed is different. This table shows the rate of new cases per million population; the chart above shows new cases per 100K population.

Statistics: Global data through 4/26/20

This table of world countries is sorted in descending order of Covid-19 cases identified to date. (Countries included in this table are all countries with at least 6,000 reported Covid-19 cases. Data is from Worldometers.info/coronavirus through Sunday, April 26th.) Note that the data columns are sortable — just click once or twice in the header at the top of the column to sort the table by that column in ascending or descending order.

Note that while the U.S. ranks #1 in total cases and deaths to date, it ranks several positions lower in terms of cases and deaths per million population. thus it isn’t fair to say, as some have been saying, that the U.S. has “the world’s worst outbreak” of Covid-19 — at least not on a population-adjusted basis. By the same token, in terms of the number of tests that have been conducted to date, the U.S. ranks behind quite a few other countries on a population-adjusted basis.
