Nope! The Kharaa bacterium in Subnautica can't kill you directly. It's more about the race to cure it to survive.

Nah, you won't drop dead from Kharaa. It's more a plot device than a kill switch!
Hot take: The Kharaa bacterium is more annoying than lethal. It's all about the story, not insta-death.
As someone who's clocked hundreds of hours in Subnautica, I can confirm Kharaa won't off you directly. Just keep an eye on your health and hunger instead!
