Attacked while working in a field, this Chinese woman has had to remove 400 bee stings from her body. The woman known only by her surname Huang, was rushed to a local hospital in Suichang county, located in the eastern Chinese province Zhejiang.


Reportedly doctors had to remove the venomous stings in an emergency procedure.



Dr Weng Jianwu, an ER doctor at the hospital, told local media: "When the patient was brought in, we saw packs of bee's stingers covering her head, neck and back.




"She said she was feeling very tired. She also had headaches and struggled to breathe."

Dr. Weng gives his suggestions that when under a bee attack, a person should stop moving as the sudden movement could prompt the insects to grow even more aggressive - in turn resulting in potentially more serious injuries.
