Nothing to do with security. Everything to do with olds not wanting to learn anything new.
I had a client, a doctor, do early retirement instead of move his paper files into and EMR system. Because he didn’t want to learn it.
Kind of like appointing a boomer with zero IT experience to the head of cybersecurity.
Any country that is short sighted enough to pull that shit deserves to have their networks wrecked.

EMR systems aren’t FOSS, so I’d be reluctant too.
Whatever security benefits there may be in fax are completely defeated if you send it over VoIP.
