Sites for corona tests and blood test appointments are difficult to reach due to DDoS attacks

The national GGD GHOR reports that various sites for viewing test results and making appointments for corona tests or vaccinations have been difficult to reach since Tuesday due to DDoS attacks. As a result, citizens cannot log in to the sites with their DigiD data.

GGD GHOR Nederland, the umbrella organization of all regional GGDs, reports that various GGD websites are inaccessible due to DDoS attacks. As a result, citizens cannot log in with their DigiD data to view test results, make appointments for a corona test or vaccination, or view previously made appointments. The problems started on Tuesday, but the GGD was also bombarded with ddos ​​attacks this morning.

The organization calls on people to contact us by telephone if it is not possible to make appointments and the GGD GHOR Nederland calls people to pass on their negative test results if they have not yet been able to see their results. People who have tested positive are already called in the context of source and contact research. Citizens cannot call themselves for a corona result.

The DDoS attacks do not affect the operation of the Digital Corona Certificate, which is used for travel within the European Union, says the GGD. We are working on a structural solution against the ddos ​​attacks.
