List of fatal snake bites in the United States
Timothy Levins, 52, male | July 8, 2014 | Copperhead | While camping at Sam A. Baker State Park in Missouri, Levins walked outside, saw a snake, and brought it to his son's attention. When he picked it up, the snake bit him. Levins walked back into the cabin, washed his hand at the kitchen sink and sat down on the couch. When he became sick, someone from a neighboring cabin came over to help and performed CPR. Levins was later pronounced dead at an area hospital.[17] |

At least four Copperhead fatalities listed.
Yeah I should not have said no one. Still many people are bitten by copperheads and they have a very high survival rate. I am sure I have read that they are the least fatal percentage wise.
Allergic reaction to the venom.
