According to Lisa Bradley, a research assistant with the Texas Honey Bee Identification Laboratory at Texas A&M, "A person allergic to bees can die from only one sting. For the rest of the population, death takes nearly 10 times the number of stings as your body weight in pounds. That means it would take about 1,200 to 2,000 stings to kill a person weighing 200 pounds."
