During the nine (9) years of 2013 - 2022 there were 19 non-native envenomations reported to the North American Snakebite Registry.
There was not a single death. The title is correct - the answer however is "zero".

Envenomations in the United States Reported in the North American
Snakebite Registry". Journal of Medical Toxicology (2023) 19:16–25

It is important to note that many states, their game and fish commissions and elected officials cite the dangers of captive ownership of venomous non-native reptiles. Many also cite dangers of captive ownership of native venomous reptiles. Bites in either category are rare - yes rare. In Alabama the
ban on captive ownership of any non native venomous reptile is often attributed to "cost of health care for such bites". Bites to reptile keepers are so uncommon as to not be material to overall healthcare costs and are classic minuscule "rounding errors" of cost.
In contrast:
Cows kill about 22 people per year in the U.S.

Horses kill about 20 people per year in the U.S. and equestrian hobby results in about 700 human deaths per year.

Hymenoptera including honey bees kill about 1,100 humans per year in the U.S.

(incidentally, honey bees are actually invasive Italian (western) honey bees which displace native pollinators.

4.5 million people are bitten by dogs each year in the U.S. requiring healthcare intervention. Of these 30-50 die each year.

3.5 million injuries occur in K-12 to kids playing sports. Remarkably and sadly, 3-5 kids die each year playing baseball. Other sports also have tragedy deaths.

This list could continue with many more activities and species killing and injuring more humans than snakes. Reptile keepers should be aware of the absolute minor impact keeping non-native and native venomous reptiles have on cost, mortality and morbidity. Yet many (perhaps most) restrictive regulations and laws use the "harm, cost and babies will die" approach to legislating restrictions.
It must also be noted that some reptile keepers are irresponsible - lost snakes, inappropriate public displays, personal envenomations from poor handling techniques, and other antics cause harm to the hobby and industry. Such stories are of course much more sensational than cows killing people. The closest sensational animal death issue seems to be with sharks with 1-2 fatalities per year in the U.S.

Reptile keepers should not tolerate false statements and false premises which drive regulatory decisions and should respond with credible facts and citations. There are many more credible publications, papers, and insurance data which can be used to refute falsehoods.
