[ RadSafe ] Disruption of Medical Isotope supply

[FISHER Spencer -NUCLEAR]

Yes, Dr. Becker is correct.  This is no surprise.  Several years ago,
when a strike closed down Chalk River, there were similar cries from the
US that they needed additional sources for contingency planning.  Once
the strike was over, that was forgotten.

I do take offence at the comments posted that this has anything to do
with the Canadian Health Care system which I consider to be excellent
and better than the US model.  As a medical physicist who has consulted
for many of the Canadian Diagnostic Imaging Centres, I can attest to how
good our system is.
