The Food and Drug Administration announced Thursday that it is investigating certain powdered infant formula following four customer reports of children contracting serious infections.
, the FDA said infections stemming from the bacterium Cronobacter sakazakii and the strain Salmonella Newport have been linked to powdered infant formula produced in Abbott Nutrition’s Sturgis, Michigan, facility.
Consumers are advised to avoid certain powdered infant formula products that come from that location while the administration works with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as state and local partners, to examine the reports. If parents or caregivers notice that an infant has those symptoms or has recently consumed those products, the FDA encourages them to contact a health care provider and get medical care immediately., Abbott Nutrition issued a voluntary recall for the affected products and said its testing showed that no distributed product has tested positive for the presence of either bacterium.
Dr. Kate Lockwood, a pediatrician at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, previously spoke to "TODAY" about tips parents and caregivers can use to feed their children.
