Listen, never mind students, I know of doctors in occupied Kashmir whose medical practice is hampered due to Delhi's electronic/internet warfare.
Why? Did the xray, MRIs and CTscan machines stop working all of a sudden when the wifi went off ? Or was it the dialysis machines/ and ventilators? Or were they unable to refer to the wikipedia article on open heart surgery which prevented them from doing the surgery?
I don't dispute the fact that there must have been inconveniences, but to pretend that medical services were severely hampered is laughable. Doctors got along fine before the early 2000s without internet and they get along fine now. Medical services are not too reliant on internet today despite all this hype about tele health being the future and what not. The most that happens is that patient reports etc are mailed online, exchanged amongst doctors, doctors can video conference and consult each other but that's pretty much it. Patients can still come to pick up their reports the old school way( If they have money for internet, they do have money for an auto ride). Doctors can send each other reports by fax, as they used to do barely 10 years ago and they can communicate with each other by phone.
