> Is anyone looking for prions in bees?

Hi Barry,

I asked that very question some months ago to Dr Joe DiRisi, who was
the proteomist who looked carefully at the bee proteomics, and was the
first to report N ceranae in the U.S.

He felt that if there was a prion, that he would have noticed it.

Sounded like a good suspect to me, too!
