Bees live less than two months, so if 80% of bees died in the last 8 months that would suggest a sharp recent increase. And even if you take it as read that it means bees dying and not being replaced, 8 months is still a terrible timeframe to use because it’s literally saying “there are 80% fewer bees now, at the tail end of winter, than there were at the height of bee season”.

I’m not saying there isn’t a bee crisis, just that this factoid is very badly worded.
