Quebec health officials are battling a fast-spreading virus that struck its
entire computer network system late Tuesday.

The virus ripped through computers at most health-care institutions,
affecting hospitals, CLSCs and nursing homes’ administrative activities
So far, it’s caused a province-wide slowdown and some fear that
patients’ files may have been damaged, too.

But government officials say patients’ privacy has not been compromised
and confidential information remains confidential.

The extent of the damage is not yet known, Isabelle Merizzi, press attache
to Health Minister Philippe Couillard said Wednesday.
