The point is not to experience the growth displayed in the chart.
Right now, the death rate is unreliable for a number of reasons:
1) it is too early in the transmission stage to have any idea of how many of those who are currently sick will eventually die;
2)there has been extreme limitation on the number of test kits available. Because of that we cannot accurately determine # of people of infected or the # of people who have died from covid without a diagnosis.
3) in many areas of the Country, control measures to mitigate the spread have already been put into place.
