It sticks in my mind that researchers stumbled onto the discovery that terramycin has an effect on deformed wing virus. As far as I know, no one knows why or how. It just does. (I recall reading something about this a year or two ago.)
I'm surprised that no one mentioned this.
If antibiotics were able to have an effect on DWV or PMS, it could easily affect production.
