Son and wife just had their first child. Hospital gave them some for free. Mom was planning to breast feed. Guess hospitals haven't been told they can't get the stuff

From what I have read, American manufacturers are stepping up production.
Also, shortage is from Covid issues, a recall in February and increased demand. Babies got to stop demanding more....

Families grappling with baby formula shortages

Parents and caregivers looking for baby formula are facing increasingly dire shortages owing to supply chain challenges and a massive recall.

29% of baby formula inventory was out of stock nationally the week of March 13, up from 18% when the year started and 3% a year earlier, according to data analyzed for Axios by consumer product data analytics firm Datasembly.

...
Between the lines: Production problems or distribution issues — depending on whom you ask — started the shortages in 2021. But a sweeping recall of Abbott Nutrition products has exacerbated the situation.

The FDA last week warned Americans not to use recalled Similac, Alimentum or EleCare powdered infant formulas made at Abbott’s Sturgis, Michigan, plant after the agency found evidence of a food-borne pathogen there.

At least four babies have reportedly gotten ill after they consumed the products, the FDA says.

...
The other side: Abbott said in a statement that the FDA's testing and its own testing "have not found any Cronobacter Sakazakii or Salmonella in any of our ... distributed products."

"We hope that these findings give parents, caregivers and our other stakeholders renewed confidence in our products," Abbott said. "That said, we will continue to enhance our manufacturing and quality processes to ensure that our products remain free of Cronobacter Sakazakii and Salmonella.



WTH is that? The FDA does not specify what the pathogen is and made this claim.

They could do this all day and cause all kind of mayhem.
Sure it does, dig deeper. Or here, let me google that for you.

During an inspection that began Jan. 31 and ended Friday, the FDA found chronobacter on machinery that comes in direct contact with powdered infant formula, as well as the floor and doors of areas that are supposed to be kept clean, according to a report also posted on Tuesday.

I have to say that I am absolutely amazed and awed at the superpowers of Biden. For someone portrayed as a drooling imbecile here he sure does manage to have an awful lot of control over every little aspect of American lives, right on down to contaminating baby formula as a way to create mayhem to control the population. You go Joe!

And Trump did not deal with supply chain issues either....didn't start in 2021

Reportedly, unopened baby formula expires a year from production.

Food production was essential during the worst of the pandemic. Here we are 2+ years in and there are shortages.

I am not buying into the bevy of excuses- the proverbial perfect storm. Sounds like just another contrived shortage.

Reportedly, WIC buys about 50% of all formula.

You are not paying attention....

take a look at wheat futures. Russia Ukraine war has destroyed a lot of food production.
Look forward, not back....

Biggest cause of current shortage...the recall. American manufacturers have responded they will increase production to compensate
