Abstract: The guidance recommends that each firm's pandemic influenza continuity of operations plan (COOP) include instructions for reporting adverse events and a plan for the submission of stored reports that were not submitted within regulatory timeframes. The guidance indicates which reports may generally be stored if necessary because of pandemic-related high employee absenteeism, without FDA objection. However, any delayed reports must be submitted after adverse event reporting processes have been restored to the pre-pandemic state. Firms should maintain records to identify what has been stored and when the processes were restored.
