What’s Behind America’s Shocking Baby-Formula Shortage?

[JohnDB]

48% of live births in America are paid for by medicaid.
So of course the social services then pay to feed the Government baby. (WIC program)
And then they don't....
Because the government shut down the independent baby milk business on fraudulent charges. 3 different plants on fraudulent charges...

 

[Aerials1978]

the baby formula scare is another example of why the government should stay the heck out of business. the WIC program. Any thing the government says they will 'give' is tainted some how

Yep. Thanks Tucker. I just watched that. Same thing happens with medical insurers (Kaiser) and Medicaid.

That means that 48% of the live births are to parents who cannot afford health insurance.

Kinda because the government replaced fathers in the home.

This is a problem near and dear to my heart. My granddaughter will bring a daughter into this mixed up world in July. She has always planned to breast feed for the first four months, but is now considering the next few months.

What happens if she cannot produce milk? My GDIL had three girls, and she couldn't produce a drop of milk. She had no choice but to bottle feed.

There are a lot of mothers here. What do you recommend new mothers do? Especially if they cannot get formula.

Surprisingly, the US government is diverting away a lot of Baby Formula from American mothers and giving it to illegal aliens, at American's expense.

So, to heck with American families and babies, give the formula to the illegals.

The Biden gov't is behind the shortage, which they claim they have known about for months. smh Either way I know women in my state are traveling across the state to get formula they need. But the gas is so high they don't know how long they can keep it up. Secondly there are children that need special formula to live, they can't have anything else. One little guy was about 5 and asked his mother if he was going to die. smh

My grandson's baby just turned one year old. Their pediatrician told them that it was okay to switch him to whole milk. The baby was nursed for four months, then switched to formula until he was a year old. He has been eating from the table for the last couple of months.

I'm praying that my granddaughter will be able to follow suit. She is 30, and this is her first child. She has some health issues that may be a problem.

IMHO, all of today's shortages are the direct result of domestic and international supply chain issues that were the result of over reaction to the pandemic and political extremism.

1st option: There are breast milk donation banks.

2nd: most women including those who are not pregnant can produce breast milk in 3 different ways.
1. Hormone therapy with a Dr
2. Breast stimulation like using a breast pump 5 times a day for 15 minutes and eating a diet that supports milk production.
3. Using donor milk in a tube by the nipple to mimic breast feeding (this will trigger the moms brain to produce milk)

3rd: see a lactation expert

4th: find a trusted wet nurse (neighbor, friend, etc who will feed your infant along with theirs)

5th: I have seen a lot of talk about goat milk but I would ask a doctor

 

[Genipher]

If you go on amazon and switch your home country to Canada, you can get formula.
USA has a shortage. Canada doesn't.

 

[Ilive4Jesus]

In my opinion, formula should have NEVER been an over the counter option. I mean, for those who are medically unable to breast feed or the child has some sort of reaction and can only have certain style then formula should have been made available by prescription only.
Ah, the joys of modern day convenience.
Now you have all these moms who could have breast feed from the beginning but choose not to competing with moms who had no choice but formula all out there trying to get formula.
Maybe this situation will cause more new moms to consider breast feeding (if medically possible). I mean hey, if dad wants to feed baby a bottle ( or a grandparent, sitter, etc) there are ways for mama to get that milk into one for them to do so. Save the formula supply for the ones who are unable to medically nurse.

Odd coincidence

So they take the formula for the border people and then tell parents not to make their own? Do they WANT babies to starve to death??

This is all a part of the overall plan to (1) destroy America and Americans, (2) kill babies through either abortion or starvation, and (3) flood the United States with illegals, who may also be carrying various infections and diseases (not to mention the violent gangsters, murdererss, rapists, and human traffickers, who will also destroy America and Americans).

It should be clear by now that the Biden administration and the Communist/Fascist Democrats are totally under the control of Satan and his demons. The agenda is quite brutal and simple -- STEAL, KILL, AND DESTROY every day 24/7. While American Special Forces sit on their collective butts and do nothing.

I also heard (but haven't confirmed) a bunch of formula was sent to Afghanistan...

They told people to wear a mask when that didn't work and people did it.

They told people to shut their businesses because of the pandemic while keeping casinos and big box stores open and people did that.

They told them to take a kill shot and they did that.

They told them they couldn't use effective treatments and they obeyed.

They told them to give their kids the kill shot and they did that.

So yes, I think they expect these same people to do whatever they tell them to do. So just trust the science! BTW what does the science say that happens to babies if you don't feed them?

Yeah, because we all know unregulated big business always works for the good of the populace.

So, you see a conspiracy, people in the know say there is no conspiracy, yet you still see a conspiracy.

Spoken like a true republitard

I don't believe in conspiracy theories and I also don't believe in coincidences.

At this point we have had 56 food processing plants burn in the last 18 months. If these people were accurate we wouldn't have empty shelves and the shortages we are seeing. So telling people that these events by themselves are not enough misses the point that they are not by themselves. For some reason China has decided to shut down 46 cities causing massive supply chain issues. Add to this the war in Ukraine which is impacting Wheat exports as well as fertilizer exports. Add to this a bioweapon was released from China and we are seeing a 91% increase in the deaths of 18-34 year old vaccinated people compared to the unvaccinated.

If you want to believe this is all a coincidence go ahead, but don't be surprised if everyone mocks you and ridicules you as a clown. Especially when you use terms like "republitard"

 

[hornetguy]

I know that Abbott has increased production on their formulas in sites other than Sturgis, and is even bringing in some from one of their plants in Ireland.
We've been told that as soon as the FDA gives permission, the Sturgis plant will reopen.... forecast is within two weeks.

Hi

 

[Nehemiah6]

We've been told that as soon as the FDA gives permission, the Sturgis plant will reopen.... forecast is within two weeks.

And why wouldn't FDA give permission? In fact at this stage of the game the issue of "permission" to manufacture or import baby food should be laughable. It has been a staple for decades.

So once again the Biden administration is manipulating the media and the public, since the alleged "shortage" was known about an year ago. And in case people have missed this, all the so-called "shortages" have been artificially created overnight in order to satisfy the agenda of the Great Reset. This is all a major worldwide movement to undermine all societies and impoverish everyone (other than the ruling elites who are controlled by the WEF).

Here are the basic economics:
HIGH SUPPLY/NORMAL DEMAND = LOWER PRICES
ARTIFICIAL SHORTAGES/NORMAL DEMAND = INFLATIONARY PRICES

First it was the Russian Hoax scam. Then it was the COVID Scam. Then it was the vaccine scam. Now it is the shortage scam + the unnecessary Ukraine war (another scam costing 56 billion dollars minimum) being fueled by Biden and his gang of thugs. When that runs its course it will be a "Climate Emergency" scam, and so on. All the media should be exposing all the scams. Instead they are colluding with the fraudsters (with Biden at the top of the heap).
