Someone has put a 'corrected proof' version here (I think that you will need a Google account):

I'm unimpressed, particularly by their overdosing with imidacloprid, and by their attempt to link what they saw to CCD despite the different symptoms.  Also Harvard Medical School's credibility has just taken a serious nose-dive by claiming this on the back of a rather dodgy study:

'Imidacloprid, one of the most widely used neonicotinoid pesticides, has 
been named as the likely culprit in the sharp worldwide decline in honey
 bee colonies since 2006.

Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health say their new research provides“convincing evidence” of the link between imidacloprid and colony collapse disorder.'

Yeah, right.
