Commenting on the malware attack today (Friday) on the NHS, UNISON general secretary Dave Prentis said: “Staff are already facing huge challenges to keep the health service running and deliver the best care for patients.
“This senseless cyber attack will make their jobs even harder. The government must take urgent action to get hospitals up and running again.
“They must also spend the cash to protect staff and patients from future incidents.”
