No non urgent blood tests, but how do we know they're non urgent until the results come in?
Still the same a month later. I check daily on the website and still getting this for all 22 centres.

Unfortunately people take absolutely zero interest in supplying weapons to other countries, its not until things like this happen when we start to take notice. Sadly the inconvenience to us will still dictate most peoples thoughts.clive said:0 - Sponsored links:

seems similar to the TSB fiasco of a few years back, an update gone totally haywire, except this affects 'the cloud' where all organisations with outsourced data storage held in the cloud can't access their info.
Technology. we take it for granted, then we're hopeless when it fails. Bring back the 'cash society' so at least one can buy some groceries for the weekend, many/most computerised payment systems are down and no real clue when they will be up and running again0 -
I heard Sky have had trouble broadcasting their flagship News station.
As long as they can show the golf & cricket today then I'll cope with everything else.1 -
Good luck doing that where you have 10's of 1000's of machines out in the fieldGlovepup said:0 -

I was an 'operator' on IBM 360 and 370 series in the late 1960s/early 70s .. huge rooms full of equipment with about the same 'capacity' as a modern laptop .. mind you, even back then we had clever boffins working on very primitive comparison sites for life and car insurance, systems that only 'came to life' after the development of the internet .. happy memories of pretty cushy, well paid shift work jobshoof_it_up_to_benty said:

Crowdstrike says global IT issues caused by 'defect' in 'content update'
Here's the full statement from George Kurtz, the CEO of Crowdstrike:
"Crowdstrike is actively working with customers impacted by a defect found in a single content update for Windows hosts.
"Mac and Linux hosts are not impacted. This is not a security incident or cyberattack.
"The issue has been identified, isolated and a fix has been deployed.
"We refer customers to the support portal for the latest updates and will continue to provide complete and continuous updates on our website.
"We further recommend organisations ensure they’re communicating with Crowdstrike representatives through official channels.
"Our team is fully mobilised to ensure the security and stability of Crowdstrike customers."

All systems working at M & S this morning. No problems with scan as you shop or with card payments.
My husband had a routine blood test at GP surgery this morning, and the nurse had to hand write the labels. My sister-in-law had her blood test cancelled at her GP surgery.0 -
