My newspaper actually said:

Quote.

" NHS Digital told the Sunday Mirror - "it's system has been the subject of a supply-chain compromise by an unidentified source."
"We have issued a high severity alert to the NHS which explains the action to take to mitigate this threat and we urge organisations to follow these insturctions promptly."

The hacked software is also used by the Medicines and Healthcare roducts Regulatory Agency, responsible for giving final approval to Covid vaccines.

Unquote.


The Americans are blaming Putin and Russia for the hack.
