Plenty of people in the Marines have Allergies. Either to medicines, foods, seasonal, etc. I know of a 1stLt that just two weeks ago got stung by a bee while out running during lunch and had to go to medical because he had an allergic reaction. As much as the Corps needs to up the numbers not that big of a risk.====I've been in 9yrs.

What would happen if a bee sting and a wasp sting were mixed together?

Mixing the venom from a bee sting and a wasp sting is unlikely to have any significant impact. Each insect's venom contains different compounds that trigger specific reactions in the body. However, the combined stings may lead to localized pain, swelling, and redness at the site of the sting, similar to the individual reactions. It's important to seek medical attention if experiencing severe symptoms or if allergic to bee or wasp venom.

Do seaweeds sting people?

Most seaweeds do not sting people, as they lack stinging cells like those found in certain jellyfish. However, some species, such as certain types of green algae, can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Additionally, seaweeds may harbor small marine organisms, like sea urchins or jellyfish, that can sting if touched. It's always best to be cautious and avoid direct contact with unfamiliar marine plants.
