The ongoing
issues in the supply chain, as well as a recent recall by formula manufacturer
Abbott Laboratories, has caused parents to face worsening shortages of infant
formula.
According
to The Washington Post, the shortage has caused major retailers such as
Walmart, Target, CVS and Walgreens to limit their purchases, forcing customers
to make multiple trips to the shelves.
In addition
to supply chain issues, the shortage has been caused in part by Abbott
Nutrition expanding its baby formula recall last month.
The company
posted another recall notice announcing it now includes one lot of its Similac
PM 60/40 formula.
