For those interested, I haven't seen a link to the original research article posted:
If you are thinking conspiracy theory, bear in mind that our respected academic entomologists have been duped as well or must be complicit.
The virus has actually been previously identified and characterized, and I think it is widely distributed in insects. It "normal" prevalence in bees is another question. It is actually pretty fascinating. The fungus (microsporidium, actually) has also been previously characterized and is well known to beekeepers: Nosema!
Many things are possible.
Remain skeptical,
Chris

There is also the issue of whether this fungus and virus originate in GMO plants and seeds, or are made worse by exposure. The obvious reasons that the government supports and espouses is more than likely not the cause.
