Tragedy in the Alessandria area, in Costa Vescovato.
A 9-year-old boy of German nationality was stung by a hornet and died of anaphylactic shock.
The little boy was on holiday with his father, mother and six-year-old sister at a farmhouse in the hills when the insect stung him in the neck while he was playing in a picnic area near a stable.
The poison that entered the circulation caused immediate cardiac arrest.
The parents, guided on the phone by the operators of the 118 station, immediately started the cardiac massage, which was then continued by the doctors who arrived on site.
After about an hour of maneuvers, the heart started beating again and, having been intubated, the little one was transported to the children's hospital in Alessandria.
However, the situation worsened. Declared brain dead, after 48 hours of observation, organs for donation were harvested tonight.
