Hospital computers hit by cyber attack

"At the moment, some of the hospitals have reverted back to keeping paper records, or using humans to oversee certain services that computer systems would normally monitor."
My opinion, paper records should have never gone away. I get it, having digital records is more convenient, but digital systems are just as venerable (cyber attack) as paper records (building fire). I just feel like paper is a little more reliable than digital. Imagine the power goes out, you still have paper records. Can't access digital records with no power.
All this technology, will be our undoing.
