“President Joe Biden will meet infant formula manufacturers on Wednesday in an effort to solve ongoing supply chain problems, almost four months after the product first started disappearing off shelves”
At the result of that meeting is Joe will claim he has a plan to resolve that problem and will let us know what it is as soon as they come up with it.
Fine the FDA...and fire a few folks.
We need a number. How much formula was sent to the border? I hope some brave soul sends some pics.
Yep, that’s what he does. He has done everything he could to screw America over.
Because?
“Although the FDA temporarily ceased operations at Abbott's Michigan plant due to bacterial infection complaints,”
Tests were reported to never have shown any evidence of the contamination. I read that the 2 cases were finally explained as contamination at point of use.
WHAT CAUSED THE SHUTDOWN?
In mid-February, Abbott announced it was recalling various lots of three powdered infant formulas from the plant, after federal officials began investigating rare bacterial infections in four babies who were fed formula. Two of the infants died. But it's not certain the bacteria came from the plant; strains found at the plant didn't match the two available samples from the babies.
The company halted production while Food and Drug Administration inspectors conducted a six-week investigation of the plant.
A preliminary report released in March found traces of a bacteria — cronobacter— on several surfaces throughout the plant, though not in areas used to make the powder. Plant records showed Abbott had detected the bacteria eight times in its products or facility since 2019.
Inspectors also flagged other problems, including standing water on the floor and employees who didn't properly sanitize their hands.
