I have heard of Foulbrood. Bee keepers not only burn the hive, they burn their gloves and anything that touched the hive.
It seems drastic, but it is an emergency. They can't risk it spreading.
If they have a vaccine they will save a lot of bees. I really hope it works.
This may be the beginning of a better future for pollinators. If they can protect them against the various diseases that are destroying them then their numbers can improve again.
I wonder if they can ever make them able to withstand the various pesticides we still use. It would solve a big problem.
I am absolutely hoping this works.
