Jellyfish sting kills 7-year-old.

Jellyfish sting kills 7-year-old. :

"There has been a fatal box jellyfish attack in far north Queensland this afternoon.

A seven-year-old girl was swimming off Umagico Beach in the northern peninsula area of Cape York when she was stung by the jellyfish at 12:30pm AEST."

This the second time a child has died from a jellyfish sting in North Queensland. The parents must be beside themselves. The ambulance officers were unable to revive her. We need to use our scientific brains to come up with something. It is always so much sadder when a little child loses their life doing something we all love in Australia - going to the beach. I feel for the parents. There must be something we can do and we are currently not the only nation suffering from jellyfish problems.
