Why aren't you checking it? Get with it! Wikipedia depends on volunteers posting from other sources. It is not the best source for immediate data. Why don't you know that? You are smart there's no excuse.The USA has a population of 320 some million. Why don't you know that, the worldometer didn't tell you that? I'm going to guess that Spain's population is 30 some million compared to our 320 some million. It's just a guess based on some numbers.
USA has something like 1,292,623 cases. The 2nd most infected country Spain has 256,000 cases.
This virus is nothing less than full indictment of what happens when we turn over our country to trickle down libertarian policies. We are the epicenter of the virus. Republicans make abominable leaders and should pay the price!
Spain 2020 population is estimated at 46,754,778 people at mid year according to UN data

I corrected my data on # of USA cases by checking on worldometer.
Spain is still ahead of the USA in cases per M pop. Most other nations are behind (and most are far behind) the USA in that respect, including the other top 14 and every other nation except some small and very small and dense ones in Europe, and Qatar. The situation is almost the same with # of deaths per 1 M. Among EU nations, Spain, Italy, France, Belgium and Netherlands still have more deaths per 1M than the USA.
The number of NEW cases per M is obviously already higher than those in the USA in the Trumpist countries of the brexited UK and the Bolsonaro-ed Brazil.
Right now the number of new cases in the USA is over 9 times that of Spain, and the number of new deaths in the USA is exactly 10 times the number of those in Spain, which has 1/7 the population of the USA. Spain's rate of testing is far higher than in the USA.
