> even with various levels of lockdown both country is currently experiencing the highest number of cases since the beginning of the pandemic. "highest number of cases" here meaning between 1 and 2 cases per million people per day. For context, the United States is currently at its lowest daily case count since June last year, which is slightly above 100 cases per million people per day. "Even with various levels of lockdown both countries have 1-2% of the case count of countries that didn't treat this seriously" isn't quite as dramatic of a statement though I guess. (all figures using the typical 7 day rolling average and data available from Mackuba)
