NHS says London Hospitals cyber attack recovery could take months, calls on blood donors

A cyber attack by the Qilin ransomware gang targeting pathology services provider Synnovis Group LLP will disrupt London hospitals for months, warns the NHS. The assault initially affected five London Hospitals, with others later affected, including those outside London. The NHS is calling for blood donors as the malicious attack prevented blood transfusions and forced the cancellation of pathology operations. The health service is also prioritising blood tests for urgent cases, leading to a cancellation of phlebotomies.
