Considering the U.S. population is over 325 MILLION, that is a low percentage. I am not making light of any death, just saying.
In the Civil war, we lost 618000
In WW1 we lost 116,516
In WW2 we lost 405,399
1918 Spanish Flu 675,000 Americans
1968 pandemic 100,000 Americans
Not to mention polio, smallpox, etc.
It serves no purpose to accuse others of being careless, when everyone has their own view on what degree of prevention they believe is "enough."
Masks: paper, fabric, filtered, etc
Gloves
Hats
Eye protection: glasses, safety glasses, goggles, shields
Attire; Long sleeved shirts, rain coat, bio hazard suit
Decontamination: sanitary or disinfectant wipes, washing hands, full shower, immediate clothing laundry, UV exposure.
Personal distancing: six feet, avoid enclosed rooms, avoiding restaurants, avoiding village squares, tennis courts, pickleball courts, golf, biking, walking solo.
Just a suggestion, if you see someone that you believe is not using precautions up to your standards, avoid them. Seeing them is NOT going to infect you with the virus. AND not everyone has the virus, even though it is our practice to assume they do.
