Infant Formula Brands Skipping FDA Injury Reporting

Makers of infant formula have been quietly sitting on injury and death reports, deciding for themselves whether to tell the FDA when babies get sick or die after consuming their products, reports KFF Health News. This self-reporting system leaves the public vulnerable to potentially harmful products, relying solely on manufacturers' discretion. It's a gaping hole in consumer protection where brand ethics are the only gate. You'd think there would be mandatory reporting for something this vital.
