> A pollinator survey in the UK will also soon reveal the current health status of British bees. Are we seeing a turning point for bee health? 

No, I think we just saw the effect of a very good summer and prolonged autumn last year that put colonies into winter in very good condition.  Apparently that has also benefitted varroa, so expect negative news soon - especially if the current disastrous weather continues!

Best wishes
