Abbott Laboratories said it could resume infant formula production within two
weeks at a Michigan manufacturing plant that has been shut since February
because of bacterial contamination concerns, exacerbating a nationwide formula
shortage.

The Illinois-based company said Wednesday it would resume production pending
approval from the Food and Drug Administration, which has been conducting an
investigation into whether bacterial contamination at the plant caused the
illnesses of four babies, two of whom died, after being fed Abbott-brand
formula. The babies were infected by a bacteria called cronobacter sakazakii,
which is known to survive in dry foods such as infant formula powder.
