Do you think this is a form of transformation or just something else? It is hard to decide myself as while the person doesn't transform and has their organic matter made in to a wasp there was a reference in the movie where a son of a victim still makes conversation with his "mother."
Here is an example of a victim: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otPW1W382wI

I think it was pretty much established the last time this came up that "Monster Grows Inside The Victim" doesn't count as transformation and that Stung is a example of that. It's no more a TF than the chest bruster from aliens.
The Thing from Another World/The Thing is different because it takes the form of and gains the memories of the life forms it consumes, infecting the cells and converting the victim organism. Stung has giant wasps that grow inside victims and emerge in gory fashion. The closest we get is a giant wasp causing a corpse to move from inside and appear alive.
