Abbott Laboratories has recalled approximately 14,885,021 cases of Similac, Alimentum, and EleCare powdered infant formulas. This recall was initiated following consumer complaints of Cronobacter sakazakii and Salmonella Newport infections in infants, and the discovery of Cronobacter bacteria during an inspection of the manufacturing facility. These bacteria can cause severe infections in babies, including blood poisoning and meningitis.
The formula may be contaminated with Cronobacter sakazakii or Salmonella Newport. These bacteria can cause life-threatening symptoms in infants, such as poor feeding, irritability, temperature changes, jaundice, grunting breaths, and abnormal body movements.
