Meanwhile, the NIC e-hospital database and servers have been restored. The NIC team is scanning and cleaning infections from other e-hospital servers located at AIIMS which are required for the delivery of hospital services.
Four physical servers arranged for restoring e-hospital services have been scanned and prepared for the databases and applications.

The sanitation of the AIIMS network is in progress and antivirus solutions have been organized for servers and computers and work has been completed on nearly 1,200 out of 5,000 computers. Twenty out of 50 servers have been scanned and this activity is going on 24×7, a source said.
The full sanitization of the network is likely to continue for another five days after which e-hospital services will start in a phased manner.
Meanwhile, patient care services, including emergency, outpatient, inpatient, laboratory, etc services are being continued in manual mode.
