The health authority says its investigation has found the attack has affected central monitoring of its heating, ventilation and cooling systems, but that they are still operating and being monitored locally.<\/p>\n

It says the health centre\u2019s security office is also closed and the\u00a0hospital\u00a0is unable to issue or update ID access cards.<\/p>\n
