The Illinois Department Of Health has confirmed what we have been saying on this website for years:
1) Cronobacter Sakazakii or Enterobacter Sakazakii can cause infant memingitis resulting in long term complications or death.
2)Powdered infant formula (PIF) can be contaminated in the manufacturing process or through the raw ingredients used.
3)While the organism has been found in other foods, “Only PIF Has Been Linked To Disease Outbreaks”.
4)Premature, low weight and immune compromised infants are at a higher risk to get this infection.
5)Sterile liquid formula is better choice for these infants than NON STERILE PIF.
Please see full article below and tell all of your friends to never use PIF with infants.
