Default Bumblebee disease?

Over the last few days I've found several dead or sluggish bumblebees,
in
my garden and in my father's about 1/4 mile away.

No signs of anything wrong, except the sluggish ones just aren't moving,
and one of them seemed unable to move his back legs.

This is too many bees to be natural causes. Anyone any ideas?

Could you please post a summary of any information in this link which
answers my question? There isn't enough information on the page for me to

my apologies, its a video explaining a similiar problem they have in the USA
with bumble bees & they are very concerned about it.
