FDA to take action to address baby formula shortage by speeding review of imports
The White House said Monday that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will be working to expedite the importation of baby formula to address nationwide shortages caused in part by the shutdown of a major supplier in Michigan. "FDA will prioritize review of applications that are most likely to be successful and will get the most formula to U.S. shelves as quickly as possible," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said at the White House briefing. "Companies will need to apply with the FDA, and FDA is prepared to review applications quickly and respond to them rapidly." She promised, "All companies will meet the FDA's gold standard for quality control, and only safe products will come to America's shelves." But Jean-Pierre did not offer a timeline for when imports could be approved. "We want to make this happen quickly," she said, adding, "We know how urgent and important this is to parents who need to make sure that they have safe formula for their babies and … [Read more...] about FDA to take action to address baby formula shortage by speeding review of imports
I’m a first aider – you must NOT rely on a thermometer’s traffic light system when it comes to your kids
USING a thermometer has become common place over the last two years. The coronavirus pandemic has meant that we've been religiously checking our temperatures - as a raised one indicates infection . But experts have warned that some brands shouldn't be used to measure your child's temperature. First aiders at CPR Kids said that you should be wary when it comes to using products with a traffic light system on your little ones. The trained professionals said: "You may have seen thermometers that use a 'traffic light' system, where certain results are shown as either red (bad), amber (concerning), or green (good). "If you have one of these types, or are thinking of buying one, please DO NOT rely on the traffic light system."

Decomposed body of woman, 37, who vanished after shopping trip is found near lake days after her car re-emerged
THE decomposed body of a woman who vanished after a shopping trip to Costco has been found days after her car re-emerged. Samantha Tomlinson, 37, went missing last December. Her skeletal remains were discovered in California’s Sierra National Forest last week. Crews had launched a new search for Samantha on May 2 after her Honda Civic was found near Shaver Lake. The Fresno County Sheriff’s Office believes the car had been covered in snow throughout the winter, which is why it wasn’t found sooner. A search crew found bones on May 4 in rough terrain about a half-mile from where the avid hiker's car was located. Two days later the coroner’s office confirmed the remains were Tomlinson’s via dental records, CBS 13 TV reported on Saturday.

Abbott baby formula plant expected to reopen in two weeks
The Abbott baby formula manufacturing facility in Michigan that has been shuttered since February is "likely" to resume operations in two weeks, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Under fire from parents and politicians, President Joe Biden's administration on Monday is expected to announce an agreement to reopen the largest domestic manufacturing plant of infant formula as well as ease import rules to allow supplies from overseas, amid a nationwide shortage . A consent decree between Abbott and the FDA paving the way for reopening the plant is "forthcoming," said Brian Deese, director of the White House's National Economic Council. On Monday, FDA chief Dr. Robert Califf told "Today" that his department has been working closely with Abbott, which on Friday said the plant would be back up and running in two weeks, subject to FDA approval.

Keeping your baby safe in the crib
Many new families looking to save money may think about getting a used crib for their newborn, but it's one of several things that could actually make a baby's crib unsafe. Jessica Hartshorn, Senior Lifestyle Editor for American Baby gives some crib safety tips for parents. Consider buying the crib new. Some used cribs have traditional drop sides, which don't meet the latest safety standards. They might also have faulty or missing parts. If you accept a hand me down, check to see if it's been recalled and then inspect it. Test the mattress in the crib. Make sure there's only a slight indent or none at all-when you press on it gently. You also don't want more than two fingers' width between the edge of the mattress and the side of the crib. The mattress pad and crib sheet should fit tightly. Place your crib away from windows. Cords, blinds, and drapes pose a strangulation risk. Plus, it could be drafty near windows during cool months, or hot and bright in the summer. … [Read more...] about Keeping your baby safe in the crib
