ecalled Baby Formula is available for purchase in many supermarkets and online. However, there is a risk that it contains harmful bacteria, which can lead to diarrhea, vomiting, and upset stomachs. The company is investigating the issue, but the company hasn't revealed how many units were affected by the recall. Parents should check the expiration date to see if the formula is still safe for their child. Abbott has created a website for parents to get information about the recall.
The Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, released a report on Recalled Baby Formula this month. The agency has scientists at its Washington headquarters who are specially trained to investigate food outbreaks, and the deputy commissioner for food safety oversees the investigation. Infants can identify the brand name of recalled products by the coding on the bottom of the containers. The expiration date of recalled formulas is April 1, 2022. A CDC website has been set up to make it easier for parents to find the product.
The CDC said the contaminated baby formulas were contaminated with Cronobacter sakazakii, which is rare but dangerous for newborn infants. Another five infants were diagnosed with salmonella. The CDC said the affected infants were not vaccinated and the outbreak is being investigated. Several pediatricians have asked parents to return recalled baby formula. But some people are concerned about the risks associated with it.
CDC researchers say a recent report from the agency shows the risk of cronobacter contamination in infant formula. This infection is particularly dangerous for newborns. The CDC has also made it easy for parents to find alternatives to the recalled baby formulas. A recalled formula will be listed on the label. Until then, parents should contact the manufacturer. The CDC also has a website set up specifically for parents to check if their infants have been exposed to recalled formulas.
The FDA has expanded the recalled baby formula recall. Three lots of the Abbott Nutrition brand have been recalled after reports of illnesses in five infants and two deaths. According to the CDC, the recalled formula was not clean. But, it was still sold in pharmacies. While looking for alternative formula, Mota's son began to show symptoms of the illness. While she was searching for a replacement formula, she was able to determine the amount of bacterial contamination in her infant.
The FDA's inspection report reveals that the recalled baby formula is not safe. The company's plant in Philadelphia has failed to thoroughly clean the surfaces of its facility, and the FDA has inspected several different plants. It found that the recalled products were not safe for consumption. Moreover, it was difficult for parents to locate the formula in the store. Despite the alleged health risk, Abbott has set up a website where parents can check for a withdrawn product.
