ATLANTA (ADAMS) – The CDC has issued a food safety alert regarding a multi-state outbreak of infant botulism tied to a recalled powdered formula sold at Target and online nationwide.
As of Saturday, a total of three infants with infant botulism have been reported in the outbreak from three states: California, Pennsylvania, and Washington.
The infants ranged in age from two to five months old, and all three consumed Nara Organics Whole Milk Organic Infant Formula, which was recalled on Saturday by Nara Organics.
All three infants were hospitalized and treated with BabyBig, the FDA-approved treatment for infant botulism, and no deaths have been reported.
Testing of cans of Nara Organics brand formula is underway, and results are expected in the coming weeks.
