That's what I heard. I believe that the reaction is much rarer,
but even more life threatening. If someone has it, the only
solution is to move to somewhere it doesn't grow. I cannot
swear that the information was true, but it seemed reliable.

I know lots of people who handle giant hogweed with no problems
(I am one), incidentally.
