baby formula Baby formula will reportedly be in short supply well into July, even though Abbott Laboratories resumed production at its Sturgis, Michigan, factory Saturday, according to a report.
In a statement, Abbott said the Michigan plant will start with the production of “specialty and metabolic formulas, with initial EleCare product release to consumers beginning on or about June 20.”
The company will begin making Similac formula and other regular products after prioritizing the specialty formulas, “with supplies hitting stores several weeks later,” the Walls Street Journal reported, citing “a person familiar with the matter.”
Part of Abbott’s statement reads: We understand the urgent need for formula and our top priority is getting high-quality, safe formula into the hands of families across America. We will ramp production as quickly as we can while meeting all requirements. We’re committed to safety and quality and will do everything we can to re-earn the trust parents, caregivers and health care providers have placed in us for 130 years. On February 17, Abbott announced it had initiated a voluntary recall of formula products, including EleCare, Similac, and Alimentum, following consumer complaints that four infants who had consumed products manufactured at the plant developed bacterial infections. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) launched investigations into the matter, and the CDC did not discover a connection between the bacterial infections and the Sturgis lab, according to a May 16 press release from Abbott.
Though the “factory had produced roughly one-fifth of the infant formula in the country,” as the Wall Street Journal noted, and the void in production would have ramifications for one of the countries’ most vulnerable populations, an official in the Biden Administration claims President Joe Biden was not informed of the crisis until April, Breitbart News […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We just launched a GiveSendGo page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
