Hi Walter
You may wish to refer to my "Strategy" article in the recent ABJ. I discuss
this paper: Sumpter, D. J. T. & Martin, S. J. (2004) The dynamics of virus
epidemics in Varroa-infested honey bee colonies. Journal of Animal Ecology
73:51-63 www.lasi.group.shef.ac.uk/pdf/Martin%2064.pdf
You can draw your own conclusions.
