>>The curious think is all the field bees were gone and only a small amount of nurse bees and a queen was left.

If enough nurse bees are left, can such hives eventually recover or is the queen 'damaged' and/or is there too much contaminated pollen for a recovery?  Seems the contaminated bees perished in the field.
