A C-17 military plane with 78,000 pounds of formula for infants and toddlers with cow milk allergies arrived Sunday to relieve struggling caretakers amid a national shortage. In February, several brands of infant formula manufactured at an Abbott facility in Sturgis, Michigan, were recalled after four infants became sick with bacterial infections. As part of President Joe Biden’s Operation Fly Formula initiative, the first shipment of European formula arrived from Germany at Indianapolis International Airport. Biden triggered the Defense Production Act, giving the plant priority for necessary supplies to restock shelves.
