Posted on November 2, 2023 by Dissent

Carmen Sin reports from Singapore:

The websites of major public hospitals, polyclinics and healthcare clusters in Singapore could not be accessed for more than seven hours on Wednesday after they crashed at about 9.20am.

Access was restored at about 4.30pm but, until then, users were unable to access the websites of Singapore General Hospital, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, National University Hospital, Changi General Hospital, and KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital.

The official sites of Sengkang General Hospital, Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, Ng Teng Fong General Hospital and the Institute of Mental Health were also down, as were the websites of all three public healthcare clusters.
