Simple yes or no answer. Are the demonstrations worth the deaths of hundreds/thousands?

Either COVID19 is super duper serious or it's not. With thousands if not millions taking to the streets in America protesting the senseless death of Mr Floyd we have to ask this question. Is one man's death worth the potential deaths of hundreds of others?

This is a serious question that needs to be answered honestly because if COVID19 is so dangerous we can't open small businesses and churches there shouldn't be thousands of people crammed into the streets spreading this virus.
