At a hearing lasting three days last month, evidence was taken from a large number of medical and other witnesses including Gillian Ellsbury, senior medical director vaccines and antivirals at Pfizer, who testified via video link.
Delivering his decision and verdict at Swinford Courthouse on Monday, Mr O’Connor returned an open verdict – a decision that means the evidence does not fully or clearly explain the cause and circumstances of death. Mr O’Connor said that having considered the medical reports of Dr Fadel Bennani, consultant pathologist at Mayo University Hospital, and Dr Michael McDermott, consultant pathologist at Our Lady’s Hospital for Sick Children, Dublin, he found that the medical cause of death was “profound adrenal pathology consistent with Addison’s disease”.
Following the delivery of his verdict, the coroner commented that the death of any person, particularly a young person as in Joseph McGinty’s case, “is extremely difficult for the immediate family, friends and also the medical staff who have treated that person”.
