Yeah no more boiling water reactors.
Chernobyl, fukushima BWR. Problem with BWR is power surges when big steam bubbles form around the fuel rods since the normal water moderates neutron flow, no liquid water, more fast neutrons, too many fast neutrons its harder if not impossible to control the reaction.
3 mile island, PWR.
To go even safer than that, liquid metal cooled reactors or pressurized heavy water breader reactors.
