Microsoft said it was aware of an issue impacting Windows running CrowdStrike technology. American Airlines, United and Delta grounded flights.

Hospitals and health systems around the world have been affected by the Microsoft outage. England’s National Health Service said the outage had caused “disruption in the majority of GP practices,” referring to primary care physicians’ offices, due to issues with their appointment and patient records system.

“The NHS has long standing measures in place to manage the disruption, including using paper patient records and handwritten prescriptions,” it said, adding that emergency services were not impacted and patients should attend appointments as usual, unless otherwise advised. In Israel, the Health Ministry said more than a dozen hospitals had been impacted by the global IT outage.
