Default USA: Baby Formula is in short supply

[The shortage can be traced back
to a contamination problem at
an Abbott factory that produces much
of the Similac formula,
as well as several other brands, for the US market,
Abbott voluntarily shut down
the factory in February, amid consumer
complaints about contaminated formula
that was linked to two infant deaths
.]

['It’s a nightmare’: baby formula shortage
leaves US parents desperate]


The US baby formula shortage is leaving
manufacturers scrambling and
parents in desperation.
During the week starting 24 April, 40% of
baby formula was out of stock in more
than 11,000 stores across the country,
CNN and USA Today reported, compared to
an out-of-stock percentage of 2 to 8%
during the first half of 2021.]

But Biden can send billions of dollars of the American peoples money to Ukraine.

Their wars come first to them before the well being of the people they're supposed to be serving.

Time for those lactating men to step up to the plate for this crisis.

What has money got to do with a case involving contamination?

I'm sorry an army of moob toting gammons is no help in this scenario

You need money to buy replacement formula from other countries, like perhaps canada..if only someone in charge had the brain capable enough to realise this.

Biden's America, where It's easier to terminate your baby than it is to feed them.

I hear on the grapevine that Bill Gates recently invested in Bio-milk, what a coincidence that there's now a formula shortage. Almost as coincidental as him being invested in vaccines and then there was a pandemic where the only way out of it was a vaccine.

Yes supermarkets can change suppliers. Again what has that to do with government money?
