School personnel, wary of any health threats from wireless technologies, may recall that in Landau University in German suggested, back in April, that mobile phone signals were disorienting bees, leading to their death from Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).
A three-year study conducted at U.S. universities, however, has identified a virus that appears to be responsible for CCD. Transporting bees in trucks may contribute to the problem.
