What type of bee can you die from a queen bee a worker bee or a drone bee?

It depends on whether you have an allergic reaction to bee stings or not. If you are, a sting could kill, but it's very unlikely.
That said, only workers can sting, as drones and queens don't have stingers. A stinger is a modified ovipositor (egg-laying tube), so obviously the drones (males) wouldn't have one. The queen uses hers to actually lay eggs, and has no venom. That just leaves the sterile female workers. Those do make up the main part of the population and are pretty much the only ones to leave the hive, so.
