Abbott Laboratories said it has paused baby-formula production [again] at its plant in Sturgis, Mich., after recent thunderstorms flooded part of the facility, causing another setback for the company’s efforts to help alleviate a nationwide formula shortage.

The halt will delay distribution of new product by a few weeks, the company said.

The Sturgis factory had produced roughly one-fifth of the infant formula in the U.S., leaving many store shelves bare when its operations stopped and formulas made there such as Similac were recalled.

How many government agencies are at that plant monitoring operations now?

Abbott may be better off shutting down for a small amount of water than dealing with these government clowns.

Now they can blame the shortage on climate change.

Thunderstorms will delay production "by a few weeks."

Why?

No roof on the building?

With all the various shortages, there is no shortage of malice and incompetence.

The clean rooms will probably need to be cleaned and re-qualified.

That could take months if feds are involved.

I think breastfeeding went away with feminism.

Breastfeeding aside, it is absurdly easy to make your own “formula” - the government-medical complex claiming that this is unsafe for normal, healthy babies is, as usual, full of it. They have turned basic food into a pharmaceutical product.

Like the USSR, Biden will announce a “Five-Year Plan” to increase baby formula production.

You think this shortage is a JOKE??


Woman #1: Did you hear that a baby was fed on elephant’s milk and gained twenty pounds in a week.

Woman #2: That’s impossible. Whose baby?

Woman #1: An elephant’s.

Well, under the Communists, the USSR had 70 years of bad crops.
