Yeah the logic isn't working here. The fact that she had an allergic reaction in high school means she had already developed the allergy earlier, so having her avoid that sting would only result in her not knowing of her allergy, putting her at even more risk than if they just let it happenIf she survived the first stung, they should've let her get stung again. How else would she know when allergic?
Unless she already does. I don't know how people know they have allergies.
