America's baby formula shame: Biden's 53 flights of foreign back-up is only enough to feed infants for a week... leaving shelves still bare and forcing moms to take matters into their own hands
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - Since May, the White House has flown in enough baby formula for 60million bottles - enough for just one week
- The most recent flights brought only enough to make 802,446 bottles 8oz bottles
- The formula shortage began six months ago with the sudden closure of the Abbott plant in Sturgis, Michigan
- Despite slashing red tape to allow foreign products to be parachuted in, Biden has not eased the crisis
- Abbott's plant has finally reopened but workers must now scramble to make up for a four-month shortfall
- The company produces 40% of all of the formula in the US so its closure knee-capped the supply chain
- Despite Biden's efforts, store shelves remain bare and mothers are rationed on how much they can buy
- Now, mothers tell DailyMail.com how they are scouring Facebook groups and relying on donated breastmilk
