Microsoft global outage disrupts UK health services, pharmacies and police online reporting

The Microsoft global outage has been impacting businesses and services in the UK. In the National Health Service, doctors have reported difficulty accessing appointments for their patients, and pharmacies have reported delays in accessing prescriptions. Some police forces have been redirecting people away from their online reporting systems. Government agencies and businesses that rely on Microsoft products such as Outlook and Teams are most affected, as are the millions of people who use them. Microsoft says it has found no evidence of cyberattacks, but the outage put heavy pressure on its remaining working servers, making it harder to resolve. When one technology company has an issue, the problem goes around the world. Al Jazeera’s Sonia Gallego reports from London. Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly
