QUESTION: US is testing less than 5k/million while S. Korea, Germany, Greenland, Hong Kong... [View all]

... are around 10k/million.
Wouldn't the countries that tested the LEAST per million have the most noise in their infection rate (or "the curve" ) numbers or the least accuracy overall?
I'm thinking of course our infection rate goes down when we're not testing enough people in large or medium cities to get a more accurate sample
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
Tested per million as of 4/6/2020
Hong Kong - 13000
S. Korea - 9000
Germany - 11000
Greenland - 9500
Italy - 11000
USA - 5000
Looks like the countries that tested the most ... per million ... early are able to handle the situation the best when it comes to bottoming out the infection rate not just "flattening" the curve which is more aimed most at helping the hospitals not human normality or the economy.
Thx in advance for your input
