Lipkinās analysis revealed that the bees were
infected with a variety of pathogens, but one in particular (Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus or
IAPV) seemed to be highly associated with CCD. The researchers cautioned, however, that their
work did not show IAPV to be the cause of CCD.
Subsequent research, in fact, failed to confirm a link between CCD and IAPV and found that although
IAPV can result in honey bee mortality, the symptoms are not consistent with those of bees dying from CCD.
