Gerber baby formula distributed despite recall notice.

Gerber Good Start SoothePro Powdered Infant Formula, which was voluntarily recalled due to possible contamination with Cronobacter sakazakii bacteria, was distributed to some US retailers even after the initial recall notice, according to the US Food and Drug Administration. The recall applies to products manufactured between January 2 and January 18 at the company’s facility in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. The Perrigo Company has not reported any products testing positive for the bacteria nor any related illnesses. Infected infants under 2 months old or those with weakened immune systems could experience fever, poor feeding, excessive crying or low energy.
