The FDA works to improve recall effectiveness following the infant Botulism outbreak linked to ByHeart Infant Formula

The FDA sent warning letters to several major retailers for failing to remove recalled ByHeart infant formula from their store shelves despite being notified of the recall. The FDA found recalled infant formula on store shelves—for over three weeks in one case and at more than 175 locations across 36 states. The letter to industry builds on the FDA’s steps to advance the evolution of industry and government recall systems, transforming how we work together to collect, analyze, and disseminate crucial recall information. Earlier this year, agency leadership called for increased attention to product recall communications from industry leaders involved in the manufacturing and distribution of infant formula, baby foods, and foods intended for children. @ https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-takes-action-improve-recall-effectiveness-following-infant-botulism-outbreak-investigation?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
