The average person has a rate of coming into contact with an egg which is contaminated with salmonella once every 80 years; this is based on the "average person" eating 3-5 eggs per week. If this egg is fully cooked, there is little risk of getting ill from it. If this egg is not fully cooked, you are likely to be quite ill, however your risk of death is still quite low, unless you're vulnerable to begin with (e.g immunosuppressed, chronically ill, very elderly, an infant or pregnant).
In this regard, your risk of dying from eating an undercooked/raw egg is fairly small.
However if you do intend to eat undercooked or raw eggs, it's still worth sourcing them from chickens vaccinated against salmonella, since this pretty much completely negates any risk involved. This is particularly true if your diet consists of lots of undercooked/raw eggs, since the more eggs you eat the bigger your risk becomes.
