According to this chart the US doesn’t have the highest per capita rate of infections. I stand corrected.
Of course, the number of actual cases in a country is going to be higher than official figures show, with testing rates also varying dramatically. As with all figures relating to confirmed cases, they should be treated with caution.

Failure to institute effective testing policy=lower numbers.
Caution? (Laughs bitterly.) As long as testing is being carried out simply to confirm individual cases it’s going to be completely useless for these sort of league table comparisons. The chart’s not worth the pixels.
