According to CCTV News, the global large-scale network failure caused by the "crowdsourcing" technology malfunction of cybersecurity companies has not only seriously affected the operations of airlines, banks, and media institutions in many parts of the world such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany, but also affected the medical systems of many countries, causing serious inconvenience to both doctors and patients.
The staff of the National Health Service in the UK public healthcare system stated that most of the clinics in UK hospitals have varying degrees of problems that affect patients' visits. Due to the large-scale network failure, the patient appointment and recording system is on the brink of paralysis, resulting in a significant decrease in the efficiency of doctor consultations. According to local media reports in the UK, some hospitals and general practitioner clinics have encountered issues with appointment cancellations, delayed medication prescribing, and long waiting times.
