Unlike most bee species which can only sting once before dying, a wasp can inflict multiple stings. A wasp does not die after stinging (naturally that is).

Depending on the species and the victim's tolerance level, the wasp venom may result in minor burning, itching to extreme swelling which will subside in a few days. Those with allergic reactions may require hospitalization and with more severe reactions, fatalities have been known to occur.
