have been many associations identified throughout the course of research; however, it is

Researchers continue to document elevated pathogen levels in CCD-affected bees, with no specific pathogen linked definitively to CCD."
Has there been any follow-up on Jerry's (BeeResearch) claim of the Irridescent??? virus carried by varroa in conjunction with nosema might be a possible cause. Has anyone run any tests to try to duplicate Jerry's research to either match or refute his claims? I've heard a lot of nay-saying, but as far as I know, none was backed up with research.
