Nationwide Recall of ByHeart Baby Formula Due to Infant Botulism Outbreak

A significant infant botulism outbreak has prompted ByHeart to recall all of its baby formula distributed in the U.S., as health officials report cases in multiple states including Kentucky, North Carolina, and California. The outbreak has been linked to severe illnesses in infants, with families of affected children filing lawsuits against ByHeart. The FDA and CDC are advising parents to check their pantries and cease using the recalled products, which include those donated to food banks and homeless families. Amidst these alarming developments, ByHeart has faced scrutiny over previous safety violations at its manufacturing facility. The situation is evolving, with ongoing investigations and an expansion of the recall as new cases continue to be reported.
