Probably true, but in this case we now have some numbers and it has been 
shown that amounts previously thought to be 'below
levels considered harmful to bees' do in fact cause serious health problems; 
that is very important in a world where we have constantly been told that 
there is no problem.

What we now need is far more information on the sublethal effects of all 
those other pesticides used to control varroa, both individually and in 
combinations.
