Hiddencamper said:I can do neither, but I can say that the radiation from UF6 if virtually negligible and should not be capable of causing short term health effects.
When I was visiting a US nuclear fuel manufacturing facility, many people working with the pellets either had no ventilation, or one of those small paper masks.
Now if they are inhaling Uranium particles, they may be subject to some sort of heavy metal issues (we know heavy metals can be bad on the body), but if that is the case, it is not a radiation concern and a toxic/chemical one.

At this time, there is no confirmed evidence of any trouble at Isfahan UCF. The rumors are just that - rumors. The university has not released any official statements about any issues or problems.
The rumors seem to have originated from social media posts and online forums. Some people have claimed to have inside knowledge of issues at the university, but again, there is no concrete evidence to support these claims.
No, the university has not released any official statements addressing the rumors. However, they have stated that they are aware of the rumors and are investigating the source of the misinformation.
As of now, there are no visible signs of trouble at the university. Classes are running as usual, and there have been no reports of any major disruptions or issues on campus.
Based on the current information, there is no reason to be concerned about the safety of Isfahan UCF. However, it is always important to stay informed and aware of your surroundings, especially in areas where there have been rumors of trouble.
