Cyprus's health system, GeSy, had big problems this week. The computer systems stopped working many times. These problems made it hard for doctors and nurses. Patients were also affected. The government is working on the issue. The Minister of Health had a meeting. People want better plans for when systems stop.

The computer problems began on Monday. They went on until Wednesday. This made it hard for pharmacies and doctor's offices. Pharmacies had long waits. It was hard to give out medicine. These problems are not new. Similar things happened before.

A meeting happened on Wednesday. Important people met. The company NCR Cyprus Ltd said they found the problem. They said they fixed it now. But the fixes may not last. A new plan is coming soon. This plan should make the system work well.

People are not happy. They want faster action. The head of the pharmacy group said patients are suffering. He said the health system needs a plan B. This means a backup plan.

These problems show GeSy needs changes. Quick fixes are not enough. A strong long-term plan is needed. This will help patients and their trust.
