Well the US if far from wiped out right now and Canada growers have been effected as well. The biggest problem is that in all likelyhood all the growers in North America will eventually have the virus. The question is can the growers afford to wait until the virus passes and then restart? As the article stated Lucky Lures sterilized and tried to restart 4 times without success. Top hat is trying the same thing but has been down for months so I can only assume that they have also been unsuccessful at restarting production.

It's been 8 years since the virus appeared in Europe. How long did it take for the virus to pass? Or is it still an issue effecting large scale production at some facilities?
