> New Zealand got deformed wing virus with the forth shipment of Carniolan drone semen from Germany around 2007

Are you sure about that? That is not mentioned in the 2014 by Yan Peng in a PhD Thesis.

What is mentioned is this:

recently Deformed Wing Virus
was reported as a possible STD in honey bees ( de Miranda and Fries, 2008). However,
the few confirmed cases of STD in social insects could also be due to the very few
studies conducted and/or the low virulence of STD therefore escaping researcher's
efforts to identifying them (Schmid-Hempel , 1998, Knell and Webberley , 2004),
therefore further investigation is required to confirm this.
