Those three countries are on very similar vectors for incidence of cases and total deaths (on a per capita basis, of course). You can see some very interesting, and alarming, statistical graphs in the following article:

I'm not going to reiterate the article's points, because you can read it for yourself and draw your own conclusions.
Here is the link to that article. It is a great read.
It starts out with some serious truth-telling.
America is testing people for coronavirus at a lower rate than other developed countries, and yet the data also shows the rate of people diagnosed with Covid-19 in the US is steadily rising, as quickly or more quickly than our peers abroad.
We don’t know the full extent of the outbreak, and America appears to have been less prepared for a pandemic than other countries in the first place.
“Everyone working in this space would agree that no matter how you measure it, the US is far behind on this,” Jen Kates, director of global health and HIV policy at the Kaiser Family Foundation, told Vox of the coronavirus response.
The conclusion of the article can be summed up as we have a shitty president and shitty healthcare system and we are *ucked because of it.
