September 11, 2008: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (”FDA”) has issued a warning that parents avoid all infant formula from China due to possible contamination. According to one news source:
The Food and Drug Administration urged U.S. consumers to avoid all infant formula from China, after several brands sold in that country came under suspicion of being contaminated with melamine, a chemical used in plastics. Officials said there have been reports from China of babies developing serious kidney problems as a result.
According to the FDA, “All U.S. brands of infant formula are safe.”
