That “1-2%” is FAR too high of an estimate.

Although regional numbers vary of course, in my state the death rate by county has averaged between 0.0004 and 0.0032 percent.

Or, in decimal notation, 0.000004-0.000032

These numbers were calculated based on the Covid data repository maintained by the New York Times (https://github.com/nytimes/covid-19-data) and US Census data (http://www.census.gov/).
