COLUMBIA, Mo. — Several more national retailers have joined Wal-Mart Stores Inc. in pulling a batch of powdered infant formula from their shelves after a Missouri newborn who consumed it apparently died of a rare bacterial infection, the companies said Friday.
Officials at Supervalu Inc., Walgreen Co., Kroger Co. and Safeway said they have removed 12.5-ounce cans of Enfamil Newborn with the lot number ZP1K7G from stores across the country as a precaution until federal health officials complete tests on the formula.
The source of the bacteria that caused 10-day-old Avery Cornett’s infection hasn’t been determined, but it can be found in dried milk and powdered formula.
