The head of the Food and Drug Administration claimed Monday that the disappearance of baby formula from store shelves across the US is due to a “distribution problem” rather than a lack of supply.
“I don’t want this to sound in any way like we’re not concerned about the parents that are struggling to find formula for their children,” FDA Commissioner Robert Califf told CNN. “That’s definitely happening in parts of the country. But you know, the number of stock on shelves is about 90% before … the recall, and it dropped to about 79% at its lowest and we’re on the way back up now.”
The Biden administration has been criticized for not doing enough sooner to address the crisis – which stemmed from a February recall by supplier Abbott Laboratories of name-brand formulas made at its plant in Sturgis, Mich.
