Of course the key factors are health, age and genetics.

I think the key factor is government response.

according to the same website the US has done a lot more tests than everyone else on that chart

Well... you are reaching a point with that number though where you have to start taking into account that the US has a lot more people than all other countries on that list apart from China and India. And once you look at it as 'tests per million inhabitants', the US is a lot less impressive. Though again, when you break it down into the different states, you can see NY is ahead of all other US states in terms of testing by quite a bit.
