I will be editing this comment as I think of more thins.
I’m going to be the devils advocate because I’m a nurse. But most of those countries are shit holes and dictatorships.
They probably don’t have good testing capability to confirm a death +/-
Those countries are authoritarian and can force draconian lockdowns unimaginable here in the US significantly reducing infection and death rate.
Authoritarian governments tend to lie about deaths and numbers.
Iran uses hydroxychlorquine and they still have/had a bunch of deaths. Same with Brazil
Another point I would like to add is that the obesity rate in these counties is much much lower than in the US. And covid ravages fat and old people.
The 2005 hydroxychlorquine study that is being quoted with Dr. Fauci’s name on it is done in vitro. The problem is just because a drug works in vitro doesn’t mean it will work in in vilo. In vitro means outside the body. IE: like a virus and a couple cells in a plate/vial. In vilo means in the body. There have been tons of drugs which worked in vitro but failed completely when used on real people.
Excellent observations. Im not discrediting the OP, but excellent observations nonetheless. Regardless of whether I like it or not, I always seek the truth and try to find out why data is what it is - even if its not helping my cause. I want to be correct and accurate.
Because it had been requested in the comments.

People keep pointing to Brazil. However, their numbers are most likely skewed as well.
