Explained: Why are honey bees getting a vaccine? | Zee News English
The U.S. has approved the first-ever vaccine for honey bees. It will confer protection from the American foulbrood disease, raising hopes of a new weapon against diseases.

The vaccine will be supplied on a “limited basis” to commercial beekeepers in the US and is expected to be available this year.
