The best graph I found to look at deaths in different countries. Number of death is I think the only proper way to compare the state of different countries because "survival rate" has less to do with how good the healthcare is, and more with how much testing has been done to find patients.
In any event, the line makes it look like lockdown is starting to have an effect in Italy. Since we are one week late in France I assume we have 7 rough days in front of us before it starts getting better, hopefully (still, we're expected not to come out until late April/early May).
Considering that the U.S. have not reached the state of lockdown that exists in Europe, I expect their numbers to keep climbing for a while. I understand why the WHO suggests it will be the next epicenter of the pandemic. They might overtake the total number of deaths in China very soon.
The UK numbers are strange, because despite being very late to the party when it comes to countermeasures, they already seem to be experiencing the growth decrease that has been observed in Iran or China after strong lockdowns. However, their initial growth was one of the largest, and they're still dealing with small death numbers, meaning that standard deviation might make the line go back up fast - and if it does they might end up worse than Italy.
Bottom line: South Korea and Japan reacted as everyone should have. To a degree, China did too.
And Brazil is in very, very deep shit: they have closed their borders, but as far as I know they haven't taken very serious lockdown measures yet (then again the psycho in charge is blaming the media for spreading panic).

I respect the speed they responded (if their numbers are true and not a propaganda number) but I will never forget they've caused this shit situation, either by negligence or on purpose. I just hope there is an international investigation done and the source of the problem is solved.

There's a short story in the new White Dwarf about the Custodes bringing Primaris Greyshields and tech to a chapter in the bad part of the galaxy. End up finding them after a long wild goose chase, down to 20 marines, led by their last librarian, as they hold up in their last ship from an ork assault.
Fine and dandy and all. But they have an Allarus Terminator get taken down and _hacked apart_ by regular orkz during the battle.
Even in their own story, made to be jobbers. Those suits are made to withstand orbital weapons without injury, a mob of boyz does not possess the weight of weaponry to do shit to that.
