I have some good news surrounding vaccines. We now are going to have the first ever vaccine

0:16.6

for bees. Yes, the USDA has approved the first ever vaccine for bees. I think it's an exciting

0:26.4

step forward for beekeepers as they rely on antibiotic treatment that has limited effectiveness

0:33.3

and requires lots of time and energy to apply to the highs. So I know that they're having

0:41.6

problems with the foul brood disease. I never heard of it, but it's the most destructive disease

0:52.3

of the honey bee brood diseases. So, Dalin animal health, the D-A-L-A-N animal health,

1:01.6

has produced the vaccine and decided the primary treatment method of the American foul brood

1:07.6

disease has been incinerating bees and infected hives. So fantastic. Now, think to yourself,

1:17.2

wait, they have to catch the bee and then they have to shoot it up with the vaccine. I mean,

1:24.0

that seems time consuming. And I don't know that I want to be the one to do it. No, no, that's not how

1:29.6

they do it. Okay. The vaccine is delivered to the queen in a sugar mixture which prompts an immune

Yeah, that would be awesome. So, the worker bees incorporate the vaccine into the royal jelly,

1:56.8

which they feed to the queen bee. Once the queen bee has consumed the vaccine late in royal jelly,

2:01.9

fragments of the vaccine are deposited in her ovaries. Then the queen's larvae will be born

2:08.0

with immunity to the disease. Now, I have a question. And this is just me throwing it out there. I know

2:16.0

that the vaccine is going to be available and I'm happy. I don't think we should be losing bees. I mean,

2:23.2

we've got we've got a huge problem with bee deaths around the world, specifically in the United

2:32.0

States of America. And with the global population growth and changing climates. Hello,

2:40.2

we this is increases the importance of honey bee pollination to secure our food supply.

2:46.7

But my question is is that is is my question is when we put the vaccine into the

2:56.1

bee hive and then it goes into the honey. Then when we consume the honey, do we get part of that
