Delays at Gauteng health facilities due to NHLS cyber attack
Updated | By Cliff Shiko
The Gauteng Department of Health on Monday warned of delays in processing laboratory tests at all public health facilities due to the cyber attack at the National Health Laboratory Service.

The NHLS was hit by a security breach on its Information Technology system last week.
The NHLS is the diagnostic pathology service for the public sector.
The department's spokesperson, Motalatale Modiba, said this has led to longer waiting times for test results.
"Critical tests such as blood tests for sodium, potassium, glucose, and other vital chemicals, as well as urgent tests for infections and other serious conditions, are prioritised to ensure that essential health services continue.
"The department appeals for patience during this time and assures the public that we are working closely with NHLS to resolve this issue as quickly as possible," he added.
