Did you look at the link? A bunch of hospitals were attacked, chemotherapy forced to be stopped along with a large number of such attacks all over the world at the same time. This was not about me, I didn't get attacked, just wondered if anyone did.

It was a world wide ransomeware attack, Russian banks, French hospitals, a lot of problems caused by this, made possible by a hole in MS security, MS was forced to come up with a fix which they provided for free, normally charging bucks for the repair.

As I posted yesterday (Wanna Cry?) NHS hospitals were badly hit in UK
with many operations having to be cancelled as medical notes could not
be retrieved.
The MS fix was available in mid-March but obviously not everyone has installed it yet!

48 NHS trusts hit in attack.
8 still to get back to normal.
