The characteristics of CCD have been documented. Which means there would 
be a rapid loss of bees before they ever went into winter so end of 
issue. So far the team has not coupled winter loss with CCD. Which is my 
point. When and if they do, I am sure they will document the symptoms 
and characteristics and let all of us know.
