Infant, Bacterial Infection | featured news

Wal-Mart says it has recalled a quantity of infant formula this week after a baby died in Missouri... Wal-Mart said it is pulled a batch of Enfamil from its stores nationwide that matched the size and lot number of the formula that may have sickened the baby in Missouri, Gee said. That lot number is ZP1K7G. The baby formula was purchased from a Wal-Mart in Lebanon, Missouri. After the purchase, a 10-day-old infant died from a rare bacterial infection, CNN affiliate KYTV reported.

For nearly four years, no one knew what caused the rare bacterial infection that left Myles Massey brain-damaged while his twin brother was fine. Now, a lawsuit charges that the infection came from tainted alcohol prep pads made by a shuttered Wisconsin firm.
