Answer

Are paper prescriptions still valid in Mallorca when the digital system fails?

Yes, paper prescriptions are still used as an emergency backup when the electronic system cannot be accessed. That makes them important for times when the digital service stalls, such as during maintenance or a migration. They are not meant to replace the digital system permanently, but they can keep medication access moving.
