wtf is going on with the WHO website

[manicinsomniac]

Not sure if I'm going mad or my eyes have gone funny or I'm in serious need of more sleep but the WHO website seems to have gone crazy - reporting 898,000 deaths and 568,000 new cases in the Vatican. Numbers don't make sense and are creating minus number stats. What is this - some kind of hacker prank?

I have screenshots but they're refusing to upload.

Oh, screenshots are working now:

It looks like the Vatican City row is actually the worldwide total?

These are the world wide stats. Maybe there was a glitch.

The Vatican stats are all wrong...... definitely a glitch

Yeah, must have been, I guess. Back to normal for me too now. Sorry, just got a weird 'end of the world' panic when I took a casual glance at those ridiculous stats!

Yeah, it's scary enough with out those statistics ....

Are there even that many people in the Vatican City population?

@EBearhug nope I believe it has an approx population of 1000!

LOL that is some glitch!

Msg on the site now-

"We apologize for the temporary disservice that you may have experienced. For about 20 minutes, our site showed clearly incorrect data due to a malicious act. We have investigated the issue and we're now implementing protective measures to prevent this from happening again. The other day we got hit with a big DDoS attack. Now this. We'll continue with our daily efforts and we'll not give up."

Sick scumbags doing that!

Ddos attack and hacking the WHO website during a pandemic? WTF is wrong with some people!?
