Mortality/Morbidity: Mortality associated with insect bites is from either anaphylactic reaction or complications resulting from infection. Reliable figures are not available. Estimates of mortality from insect-provoked anaphylaxis in the United States range from 50-150 persons annually. In Arizona, for example, death from reduviid-associated anaphylaxis has been reported as a leading cause of death from insect exposure. Worldwide, the greatest morbidity and mortality associated with insect bites are due to Anopheles species mosquito bites resulting in infection with malaria

Killer bees weren't "created in a lab" they were imported more aggressive African species that escaped in South America and started infiltrating/taking over nearby European hives, slowly moving northward into the United States.
African species aren't cold-tolerant so can't take over true European hives in Europe or move into the Northern United States.
