ICYMI: Baby formula shortage could ease as Abbott reopens Michigan plant
The company said it will begin production of EleCare and other specialty and metabolic formulas, with initial EleCare product release to consumers beginning on or about June 20.
The plant shutdown and a recall of infant formula had deepened a supply shortage in a nation where, according to federal data from 2020, less than half of babies were exclusively breast-fed through their first three months. The FDA’s inspection of the Sturgis facility revealed “shocking” results such as cracks in vital equipment, a lack of adequate hand-washing and evidence of previous bacterial contamination.
