All resorts are on rations in Cuba. A Canadian, buddy just shared this, he n wife r leaving all their clothes with hotel staff.

What is the difference between Italian and Russian bees?
Italian and Russian bees are both excellent breeds for beekeeping, although they have a tendency to swarm. Each race of bee is hard-working and can produce large amounts of honey in the right conditions. Italian bees are less aggressive and easier to requeen but are more likely to rob. The Russian breed overwinters well and has good resistance to varroa mites and other pests.

“Whoever controls the food supply controls the people.”
Society can only survive and fully function with a robust and ample food supply & security. All roads lead from that. That’s why supporting farmers and farming is probably the most important campaign in this era. Without food (ideally fresh & local) societies crumble and public health diminishes.
