  2. So Japan is trying something to help boost cybersecurity for #hospitals. According to The Japan News:

    "Medical institutions have faced challenges when implementing effective cybersecurity measures as there are multiple IT vendors for different medical devices. This means that facilities have to maintain numerous network connections linking their systems to the outside world.

    To address this, the ministry will provide subsidies to hospitals that consolidate their external connection points, simplifying monitoring and allowing for systems to be isolated faster in the event of an attack."

    The govt will also dispatch cybersecurity experts in the event of a cyberattack.

  9. Video - U.S. Sabotages Cuba’s Hospitals — Then Calls Universal Healthcare a Failure

    Duration - 1:47

    [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    U.S. Rep. Carlos Giménez (R-FL) says Cuba’s healthcare system “sucks” and “doesn’t work,” pointing to hospitals without #medicine and deteriorating conditions.

    But this criticism leaves out a major part of the story: the policies Giménez has championed are the reason why Cuba’s #hospitals are collapsing. #US #EconomicWarfare has restricted Cuba’s ability to obtain medicines, #medical equipment, fuel and other resources needed to keep its #healthcare system running.
