Sorry, Chris, but your "alleged ' Americas ' killer bees"
originated as escapees from some research hives in
Brazil. They were originally brought in to Brazil from
Africa -......
 
Of course, everything - all life forms - moves all over
the world these days by one means or another, so
trying to shut something out from one's specific piece
of the planet is really an exercise in futility, imho. You can
block it for a time, but that is a temporary solution.
 
Now, with the internet, substitute ' ideas ' for ' life forms '
above and you will get a notion of the same thing - witness
mainland China trying to block parts of the net - a really
futile activity - even their new Human Rights Site was
hacked within the first 24 hours of its existence ... but
I am getting away from Bees and Bee diseases, etc.
