Posted in: Tokyo Disneyland stops selling balloons due to lack of helium See in context

"John Lee, chairman of the UK's Balloon Association, insists that the helium its members put into balloons is not depriving the medical profession of the gas. 'The helium we use is not pure,' says Lee. 'It's recycled from the gas which is used in the medical industry, and mixed with air. We call it balloon gas rather than helium for that reason.'"

Can't 'balloon gas' be procured from anywhere in the medically-developed world if the above is true in general?
