534 people too many, but why not look at the stats properly. The USA has a population of around 250 million (ish). Averaged out over a year how many people in the USA die per day across the whole USA including Alaska, Hawaii, etc.?

Found this from the CDC for 2018:

"In 2018, a total of 2,839,205 resident deaths were registered in the United States—25,702 more deaths than in 2017. From 2017 to 2018, the age-adjusted death rate for the total population decreased 1.1%, and life expectancy at birth increased 0.1 year."

What will the stats be for 2020 (and 2021)?

@zonavar68 I think the population is 327 million, so the amount dying although bad, statistically better.....

@zonavar68 Actually you have a point. For instance where I am there has been a harsh lock down with few people at work. pubs closed and a driving limitation on distance and rasons to drive.. And of course the road toll has dropped.😷
