Finland has started stockpiling drugs containing paracetamol and
dexamethasone as the country prepares for a second wave of coronavirus,
authorities said on Tuesday.
Consumers will be allowed to buy three-months worth of paracetamol and dexamethasone at a time until at least January, the Ministry of Health said, with the aim to "prepare for a possible increase in global demand" during autumn and winter.
Global supplies of paracetamol - commonly used to treat fevers - have been hit after the COVID-19 pandemic prompted some countries, including in China, to cut production.
