FLINT, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – Officials said the cyberattack that has devastated McLaren Health Care’s computer system since Aug. 7 will likely continue to impact the network through the end of August.

Officials confirmed the ransomware attack and said the hospital system has been able to contain some of the damage, but it continues to be problematic for other areas of McLaren’s databases.
