Well, you did certainly talk about medical isotopes, so let me ask you, what work has been done to determine the impact on global supply of medical isotopes when the NRU shuts down?
That has been a matter of great concern for the Canadian Association of Nuclear Medicine, which warned that shutting it down will put the supply of medical isotopes internationally in serious danger and that alternatives may not be available. In fact, the nuclear medical association states:
The potential “doomsday” scenario of simultaneous closures/shutdown/maintenance of the NRU and other reactors in Europe or elsewhere in the following 2 to 4 years could be postponed or cancelled if the NRU was allowed to operate for a few more years.
