Hi all

RE: recent work on DWV. Wenseleers is quoted.  Does anyone have a link to the actual paper?

I posted about this earlier this year, the info is:

> Overall, our results demonstrate that DWV infections have strongly deleterious effects on adult honey bees, with both mortality rates, and—to a lesser extent—foraging behaviour being clearly affected. In particular, DWV-infected bees started to forage at an earlier age and showed reduced lifespans and total activity spans than control bees. 

Benaets K et al. 2017 Covert deformed wing virus infections have long-term deleterious effects on honeybee foraging and survival. Proc. R. Soc. B 284: 20162149.
