To most people a wasp sting is just a painful nuisance, but a very small number of people suffer a severe allergic reaction to the sting.
The worst reaction is anaphylactic shock where blood vessels dilate, leading to low blood pressure, and tissues swell in the throat leading to difficulty with breathing. Left untreated, anaphylactic shock can lead to death in a matter of minutes.
Anyone who is known to be hypersensitive should carry an epipen, a pre-loaded automatic syringe which will give an injection of epinephrin to counter the effects of anaphylaxis if stung. They would then require hospital treatment.
