>To me CCD is a myth and only a word now
used *today*to describe a dead hive.

And that is why this will be only a short reply

>I am still waiting for Dave to show me some research showing vitamin C is
poison to virus (using Dave's own words from his post).

No-one is paying me for research, this post (and previous) are out of the 
"goodness of my heart",  actually for your bees sake more than you

>antibiotics do not work with virus and neither does vitamin C!

1st statement true, 2nd false (large doses required)

>Number ONE is varroa control. Get those blood
suckers out of the hive and most virus issues will go away.

Unfortunatly while most virus are short-lived (out of host)
ccd is NOT.  Others have remarked this, years old deadout boxes
restarting the whole nightmare.  I agree with these observations
