I have noticed what you have seen. SUS does not have the patches yet and
Windows Update itself seems to be extremely slow right now. In some cases
Windows Update has failed during the download.

It appears that Microsoft has not released the updates yet.  At least, I
cannot get our SUS (Software Update Services) server to download the patches
yet. :-/

Does anyone have any concerns about deploying the patches?

Dear all,

The REN-ISAC participates in a daily cybersecurity status conference call
with other ISACs, US-CERT, and DHS. This Friday, the group will be joined by
representatives from Microsoft to discuss the April Windows security
updates. I can take questions you have regarding the updates to the call,
and will report back.

If you haven't checked the updates - published today - you probably should.
Several are critical.
