While the country’s supply of baby formula has been significantly impacted throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, several recent recalls and supply chain issues have caused an urgent shortage over the last few weeks.
“We at Lehigh Valley Reilly Children's Hospital empathize with local families that are struggling with the formula shortage crisis,” says J. Nathan Hagstrom, MD, Chair of the Department of Pediatrics at Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital. “So many parents and guardians are struggling to get basic nutrition for their children, and we are here to help you in any way we can.”
