Any procedure over uniditifed biting insects in PAX area?

Hello all,
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this question, however a search revealed little.

I was wondering, if a PAX is bitten by an unidentified biting insect during international travel (lets say europe to US flight) and the PAX shows prompt and serious symptoms (eg massive swelling, puss, dizzyness, disorientation) is there any kind of procedure an airline must follow? Perhaps multiple regulations come in? Would it be CAA or FAA or both?

Im thinking in terms of not only the individual concerned, but for safety of all PAX onboard as well.

Thanks for your input PPrune!
