IT working but delays possible after outage, says NHS

Health service IT systems are back online following Friday's global outage, according to NHS England. "Thanks to the hard work of NHS staff throughout this incident we are hoping to keep further disruption to a minimum, however there still may be some delays as services recover, particularly with GPs needing to rebook appointments, so please bear with us," spokesperson said. Friday's outage was caused by a faulty update to CrowdStrike antivirus software, which crashed Microsoft systems. CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz said the issue had been fixed on Friday - but admitted that it could take "Some time" for some computer systems to be restored. Europe's largest travel group TUI said the outage was still causing delays.
