No a bacterium (plural bacteria) does not cause death, some can, but the majority of bacteria allow you to live, you have countless bacteria in your intestines and mouth (plaque) and every surface, unless sterilized, most like has some bacteria in it. Fun fact, if you look on a yogurt label the ingredients should have "live cultures" listed somewhere and those are bacteria that can help regulate your digestive tract.
