Baby Dies, Formula Recalled




After the death of a newborn due to suspected bacteria-laden formula, the product has been removed from shelves by Walmart.
Health officials are awaiting results from the batch of formula recalled by Walmart after a newborn died.

We're also learning another baby was infected with the same rare bacteria that prompted the voluntary recall. The infant got sick late last month after consuming several different types of powdered baby formula.

The baby recovered, but health officials are investigating if the two cases are connected.

It could be a couple weeks before test results are in from the batch of Enfamil Newborn powder that Walmart voluntarily recalled.
Twelve-ounce cans of Enfamil Newborn powder with lot number ZP1K7G should be returned to the store for refund or exchange.
