In terms of deaths/confirmed the Unites States drops to 55th highest among 179 countries.

Possible correlation of Covid-19 cases per capita versus median population age.

The median population age varies by country from about 15 to 50. The 15 countries with the lowest median population age are all in Africa.

Since Covid-19 death rates appear to be higher for older people (see for example https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/COVID-19-Cases-by-Age-Group.aspx for California), we looked at the Covid-19 deaths per capita  for 179 countries versus a country's population median age. However, there appears to be very little correlation.
