France has done 1/2 as many tests per million than the US. That alone can explain the lower infection rate in France. Deaths in France are 3x that of the US per million. By all the metrics I see, the US is doing much better than France.
The relevant graphic is the curve "Total Coronavirus Deaths in..." the United States and France, it's the fourth curve in each page. Compare both and you'll see that gradient for France is decreasing, not so for the USA.
The US isn't doing better, it's just at a previous stage. Wish you the best anyway, of course.
Edit: in Spain death curve only started to lose gradient three weeks after confinement.
