I understand the no antibiotics part, but no vaccine? I didn't know the Kiwis are antivaxxer ;) Or does vaccine for bees mean something else, more sinister?

- rysertio 2y agovaccine availability can be affected by things like, no one sells the vaccine here, or an application for a vaccines approval being stuck in a pile of papers.
- giantg2 2y agoThe first ever AFB vaccine was just created recently. It got US approval only last year (first market to approve it I believe). So yeah, a vaccine exists, but it's not widespread as it's extremely new.
