How common EFB in the UK

[Finman]

.
Are the different races more or less vulnerable to EFB?

- black bee
- carniolan
- italian
- buckfast
- different mongrels

- consentrations in local bees

Lets say, last 5 years. Is there any research about genetic advantages on "local" bees, or is it better to buy resistant genes outside of "local"?

.

 

[For want of a better word]

NO

 

[Finman]

OH NO I understand, but NO, that is odd.

It's not common in UK, prevailing hot spots around different areas but I'm not sure of any reliable data to strain resistance or vulnerability.

Skewed data perhaps?

Did you know that Icecream sales can be directly linked to the incidence of skin cancer?

No... that means NO... what is it about NO that you do not understand?

Perhaps more succinctly my reply should have been NO... to all of the above?

It does no good someone from a different country giving advice on something that in this country is notifiable. All it does is confuse beginners and that's the last thing we want.
EFB and AFB are notifiable diseases, if suspected you must contact the SBI.

Doesn't help that some BKA's allow the sale of used, drawn brood comb at their auctions funnily enough, the biggest culprits crop up most years as EFB hotspots

Really!? Who would buy that!

That is odd. Efb and Afb is summed together. They are totally different diseases.
But you like to play your game this way.

Most interesting is that you cannot use other world's information.

IT seems to confuse old farts.

[foghornleghorn]

Itld reckons black bees are more susceptible than carnis/buckfast

Plenty of idiots out there who will buy any old rubbish

You need to look at historic disease maps.
You may need to be a UK resident and registered on Beebase to do that?
We do not like sharing confidential information with Jonny Foreigner it seems

Yes British politicians tell the truth whilst foreign politicians lie...

You may hold to your inferences. I do not.

Whilst i note the ironic nature I would suggest they lie/steal less

Steal less? Agreed.
