The biggest baby formula supplier in the U.S. has denied its Michigan plant is responsible for the deaths of two children despite the FDA closing it down.
The plant was shutdown nearly three months ago after a bacterial infection caused the deaths and other serious illnesses.
In mid-February Abbott Laboratories issued a nationwide baby formula recall and ceased operations at its plant in Sturgis, Michigan amid reports of babies contracting bacterial infections from its products.
An Abbott spokesperson told DailyMail.com Tuesday that ‘thorough investigation’ by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Abbott revealed ‘infant formula produced at our Sturgis facility is not the likely source of infection in the reported cases and that there was not an outbreak caused by products from the facility’.
However, despite the findings of the investigation, the plant remains shuttered nearly three months later, fueling the nationwide baby formula shortage.
The FDA – which said it found food safety violations at the plant, as well as five strains of Cronobacter, a bacteria that can cause blood infections and meningitis – has refused to say when the plant can resume operations.
Abbott claims they are ‘working closely with the FDA to restart operations’ at the plant, with the spokesperson noting: ‘We continue to make progress on corrective actions and will be implementing additional actions as we work toward addressing items related to the recent recall’.
The FDA told DailyMail.com it was holding discussions with ‘Abbott and other manufacturers to increase production of different specialty and metabolic products’ but refused to say when the Sturgis plant could reopen.
The formula shortage, which has become a national crisis, was triggered by supply chain issues, but spiked with the closure of the Abbott plant.
Maybe 5-10% of post-partum women can’t produce enough milk and require substitute milk or formula. The remainder use formula for other reasons.
Formula, even though it’s mostly water and soybeans, is ridiculously expensive.

A great time where there was no ADD, ADHD, nut allergies, skin rashes, hair loss, depression. Social media was talking in person, on the house phone or writing a letter/note. We drank out of a hose, played OUTSIDE until dark or later…..all without masks!
Pallets of baby formula sent to border for illegal immigrants. Wake up people this administration doesn’t look out for this country they hate it.Vote these evil people out before it gets worse then it already is. Time to get rid of democrats and 147 of RINO republicans .
Our system is being overloaded by illegals and can’t keep up.
They tried to kill us with the covid vax that didnt work. Now trying to starve us out. Word has it that there is plenty of formula heading to the border so the illegals can feed their kids.
Educated Professional Women with Great Health Care benefits including pre and postnatal care including Maternity leave have luxuries. Abortion should always be an option for the less fortunate that contribute little more than impulsive and abject failure to the gene pool.
The luciferian agenda involves many death scarafices. So better get used to it! Babies are high on their list. As you can see THEY HATE GODS gifts
4:01 why does someone else have to die because you or another person couldnt bother to be more responsible?
If it’s that hard to wear a condom or take a birth control pill. Maybe then sterilization would be the best option for those with limited intelligence?
They’re changing the machinery to hide the new “ingredients” that they’re adding.
It is so unfair and despicable that trailer loads of pallets of baby formula are being sent to the border for the illegals babies. This is just so wrong! Just let the tax paying American’s babies die of starvation while the food is given to those who are breaking the law and pay no taxes, jut cost our country a fortune. If we don’t get rid of Biden and the rest of the nutty democrats, something bad is going to happen in this country. People are only going to put up with so much of this BS!
