Tour organiser Growth Faculty said in the event description that attendees would hear Mr Obama 'discuss strength in leadership and explore techniques for navigating an unpredictable future'.

'In times of great challenge and change, President Obama’s leadership ushered in a stronger economy, a more equal society, a nation more secure at home and more respected around the world,' the description read.

'There's no leader better equipped to share their experience, unique strategy and wisdom on the changing face of leadership.'

the cool thing is they give you 1 month to ask for a refund, and the refund just requires a pressing the refund button not calling in, and it's easy to watch what you want in a month

‘Lessons have not been learned’: FDA knew of positive test months before latest infant formula recall

quote:

A recent recall of infant formula was announced nearly three months after Food and Drug Administration officials first learned that some products at a major plant had tested positive for bacteria — a delay that mirrors the agency’s slow response to reports of food safety problems and infant deaths ahead of last year’s massive recall over the same type of bacteria.

In late February, formula giant Reckitt issued a press release recalling 145,000 cans of Enfamil ProSobee Simply Plant-Based Infant Formula over the “possibility of cross-contamination with Cronobacter sakazakii” — the deadly pathogen that sparked the infant formula crisis last year. Dozens of news outlets covered this as breaking news, recommending parents and caregivers toss the products or return them for a refund.

FDA inspectors, however, had become aware of the positive test that ultimately sparked this recall in November, an FDA spokesperson confirmed to POLITICO.

Reckitt had found Cronobacter sakazakii in a batch of formula made at its Zeeland, Mich., plant, during internal testing conducted in early September. The batch that tested positive was destroyed, but the FDA later determined that not enough cleaning had been done following the positive test. Two batches of formula made right after the contaminated batch would ultimately be recalled on February 20 — more than five months after the products had been distributed nationally, including in Guam and Puerto Rico.


The revelation that this recall took months to announce comes more than a year after a massive infant formula recall from Abbott Nutrition, renewing questions about FDA’s oversight of formula and whether enough has changed in the wake of this crisis to prevent another one. There have been four formula recalls over Cronobacter contamination in the past year — more formula recalls than there have been in the last decade combined.

The Reckitt recall in February was relatively small compared to the Abbott recall — which was likely the largest in history — and both FDA and the company maintain there have been no reports of illness related to this incident. For food safety advocates, however, it feels like a test that the agency didn’t pass.

“It’s stunning that it’s almost identical to what happened in 2021,” said Mitzi Baum, CEO of STOP Foodborne Illness, a group that advocates on behalf of victims of outbreaks, referring to the lengthy timeline from positive test to recall. “Lessons have not been learned.”

I had to check the dateline bc at first I was sure the story was from last year, lol.

Are we gonna get a Flint situation? Are these chemicals reactive with the piping?

Like presumably even if they fix it (:lol:) it's still in the city's water pipes and needs to be flushed out.

they're chemicals used for producing acrylic plastics. they might react with one another and polymerize but I don't think they'd cause any kind of corrosion or damage to the inside of the pipes like what happened with road salt in flint

i'm glad we tried dumping some of the chemicals in the pipes. we wouldn't be able to know for sure what would happen otherwise. another win for science, which I freaking love.

Flint happened because they changed water source, which ultimately completely changed the water chemistry, including a lower pH leaving their plant. If they had paid the small price to dose corrosion inhibitors and adjust the pH at the plant, it never would have happened.

Here, they might try to adjust the treatment process to remove as much of the contaminants as possible, but even if some breakthrough, as long as the pH remains the same, it seems unlikely the chemicals that have leaked would be at nearly high enough concentrations to have any corrosion potential.
