Your question really highlights one of the concerns I've raised in several of the audits presented today. Some of the gaps are known, but the departments aren't addressing them.
In this instance, inspections were carried out at the warehouses where pharmaceuticals are stored. Shortcomings were identified, but they weren't addressed. What happened was that some pharmaceuticals had to be discarded in 2024 because the freezers had too many pharmaceuticals in them, and the temperature monitoring system had failed, while no alarms went off. The pharmaceuticals were no longer usable. They were discarded because they could no longer be used. However, this situation could have been avoided if the shortcomings had been addressed beforehand.
