#15 if we exclude countries with fewer than 1,000,000 residents

Though an accurate count of cases is probably difficult to determine for most countries, due to timing and availability of tests and requirements and willingness of residents to get tests. Plus asymptomatic cases might exclude many cases from being tested as well.

EDIT - though I think we can safely assume the number of cases by any measure is short of 70% of the population which is the number I have seen for estimated "herd" immunity via infection
