Doctors on stings – wasps: how dangerous pests actually are

Date:

The wasp plague is particularly large this year. The mild winter has allowed many insects to survive. Numerous emergencies are registered at the Innsbruck Clinic and rescue organisations. The ‘Kroon’ shows you how to protect yourself and a doctor explains the dangers that the pests actually pose.

A small glass of lemonade to cool down in the high temperatures and various wasps buzz around the table. The small insects are not only an important part of our ecosystem, but also pose an almost invisible danger to people with allergies.

When every second counts
The result of wasp stings can sometimes be serious reactions, ranging from swelling and shortness of breath to anaphylactic shock. In such cases, every second counts and rapid medical attention is essential. One wrong step or moment of inattention can be dangerous. Several recent cases underline this.
