Tyrol also affected
IT chaos: control center and hospital in emergency mode
Massive IT problems caused chaos worldwide on Friday. International air traffic in particular, but banks and the media also reported disruptions. There were also problems in this country. The Tyrol control center and Kufstein district hospital were affected. Both were able to resume normal operations in the afternoon.
"Due to a system failure, patient transports in Tyrol can currently only be served to a very limited extent. The patient transport hotline 14844 is also unavailable. Emergency calls are not affected by the outage," said the Tyrol control center on its social media channels on Friday morning.
The control center was then able to give the all-clear at around 3.30 pm: All systems would be back in normal operation.
"Restricted patient care"
Kufstein District Hospital also reported an IT outage on Friday morning. "This outage affects both administrative and medical equipment, which means that patient care is only possible to a limited extent. Despite the current challenge, the district hospital assures that vital instruments and equipment will continue to function perfectly," it said on the hospital's website.
Only in an extreme emergency should the Kufstein district hospital currently be visited. Long waiting times are to be expected.

Other hospitals are stocking up
The population has been asked to contact the neighboring hospitals in St. Johann and Schwaz for outpatient emergencies. "We are working at full speed together with the neighboring hospitals, which are preparing to increase their capacities," explains Dr. Schoner, Administrative Director of Kufstein Hospital.
The Kufstein district hospital should only be used in extreme emergencies. Long waiting times were to be expected.
Shortly after 4 p.m., the hospital was able to breathe a sigh of relief: the systems were operational again and normal operations were resumed.
Innsbruck Airport reports no disruptions
In contrast to Vienna-Schwechat Airport or other international airports, Innsbruck Airport has so far escaped unscathed. "There are no disruptions. Flight operations are running", said press spokeswoman Nicole Kehle at midday in response to a question from "Krone".
Everything was on track and therefore okay at the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) on Friday. No problems were reported in Tyrol.
