Dr Mkabwa Manoko of the University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, on Wednesday said that bees’ venom could be used to kill deadly viruses in the body.

According to the lecturer, it is clearly established in research that bee venom has the ability to kill HIV, but not the human cells; so, it is something that research can explore to see how it can be used in the cure of HIV/AIDS. “More research and the application of the researches on bee-keeping are needed. We normally carry out research, but we do not develop them,’’ he said. Manoko appealed to African governments to train scientists, citizens on bee-keeping, adding that the pollination services of bees are yet to be explored adequately. “We need scientists in bee-keeping so that its contribution to the Gross Domestic Product can be realized,’’. Manoko, who noted that Tanzania had up to two million bee-keepers, said the country had research institutes on bees and universities, which offered degree courses in bee-keeping.
