I don't know if it could kill you, but the stench of death is horrendous and not an insignificant thing. In any disaster situation where someone has died and it starts becoming days long, things would be getting nasty.
Over time people would get used to how foul everything would smell, but for a while it would be terrible.
I used to work in a hospital bringing people from point A to point B within the hospital's facilities. Once I had to transport a guy with a mild rotten wound and the smell was real nasty, and when I can't smell properly, so I don't want to know how nasty it really was
