People die of smallpox because the disease can cause multiple symoptoms,delieria,chills,headaches,backaches,coma,fever, and much much more. People die from it because once the virus has entered your body it starts to take over cells. Once it takes over the cells it starts to shut down your nervous system. Once it does that it pretty much "reprograms" the cell to make copies of the virus. Once it starts makeing copies it takes over the whole body,the brain,legs,arms,everything. Then you die.
