I thought the main take away was this:
> Although N. ceranae infections are also statistically significantly correlated with colony losses, determination of the effect size reveals that N. ceranae infections are of no or low biological relevance.
> Our results end a long-standing controversy about the virulence of N. ceranae at the honey bee colony level and whether N. ceranae should be considered a serious threat to honey bee colonies.
