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.

USA has something like 2,600 000 cases. The 2nd most infected country Spain has 260,000 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!

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.

Spain 2020 population is estimated at 46,754,778 people at mid year according to UN data

place / total cases / +new cases / total deaths / +new deaths / population
World      3,913,643 +96,261 270,426 +5,589
USA      1,292,623 +29,531 76,928 +2,129      332,639,102
Spain 256,855 +3,173 26,070 +213  46,754,778
Italy        215,858 +1,401 29,958 +274  60,461,826
UK        206,715 +5,614 30,615 +539  67,886,011
Russia 177,160 +11,231 1,625 +88        141,722,205
France 174,791 +600 25,987 +178  65,273,511
Germany 169,430 +1,268 7,392 +117  83,783,942
Brazil 135,693 +9,082 9,188 +600 211,715,973
Turkey 133,721 +1,977 3,641 +57            84,339,067
Iran        103,135 +1,485 6,486 +68          83,992,949
China 82,885 +2        4,633 0            1,394,015,977

Not bad for a guess. As you now see, Spain's population is significantly lower than ours. So, you should/can expect our numbers to be higher/worse than theirs from here on.
