Emer Cooke says the situation was ‘unique’ and measures are being taken to avoid a repeat next winter
Ms Cooke said the situation that arose, particularly in relation to shortages of antibiotics and children’s analgesics such as paracetamol and ibuprofen, was “unique”.
“I’d be confident saying the worst is over,” the Trinity College Dublin-trained pharmacist said in an interview with The Irish Times, though she declined to specify a date when all the shortages would end. “It has been an amazing experience, and really an amazing experience to see how Europe has worked together. I’m very proud to be part of that,” she said.
While US regulators have noted a possible early “signal” in data linking Pfizer’s bivalent vaccine to stroke in older people, Ms Cook said the agency has looked carefully at its vaccine database and has not seen any similar trend.
