I think a lot of beekeepers got out of the business. Maybe eventually, there'll be more of them around once it is shown that they can have healthy bees.
Oh yeah, I heard about that. Hope that doesn't take too long. I remember part of the story was that the bats were eating their weight in insects, every day. That should make some impact if they aren't around to do that.
Maybe, if the bee collapse is not solved, we can take some of our zillions of military research dollars and invent mechanical bees to pollinate our crops. That would be far more useful than figuring out how to kill people more effectively.

Our beehives are not immune.
