After destroying the baby formula market, Biden’s FDA Head says the firm that he shut down for three months can now open.
The Biden FDA shut down Abbott’s Sturgis formula plant three months ago.
The firm that owned the plant refuted claims that its formula was to blame for the deaths of four babies that used its formula. The firm investigated the causes of those babies’ deaths and none were related to its formula.
Abbot Laboratories said it reached a deal with the FDA to reopen its Michigan plant – but it could take two months before product hits the shelves.
In 25 states, 40-50% of baby formula is out of stock.
In 5 states over 50% of baby formula is out of stock.
In the meantime, the Biden Regime is happily supplying baby formula to illegal aliens and telling Americans to ‘call their doctors’ if they can’t find baby formula.
Abbott announced on Monday:
After FDA approval, Abbott could restart the site within two weeks; from the time of restart it would take six to eight weeks before product is available on shelves
Abbott will continue to import formula from FDA-registered facility in Ireland to help alleviate near-term supply shortage
CDC concluded its investigation with no findings of a link between Abbott formulas and infant illnesses
“Abbott (NYSE: ABT) has agreed to enter into a consent decree with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) related to its Sturgis, Mich., infant formula plant. The decree is an agreement between FDA and Abbott on the steps necessary to resume production and maintain the facility. This does not affect any other Abbott plant or operation. The decree is subject to court approval.” the company said in a statement.
