But the agency did not definitively say whether or not there is a link between the infant deaths and the formula manufactured at Abbott Nutrition’s Sturgis plant in Michigan., the FDA shared. The agency explains that 119 of those complaints were reported after Abbott voluntarily recalled their formula products on Feb. 17.

"The FDA informed Abbott of this case last week, but there was limited product and clinical information provided to evaluate the case. At this time, there are no conclusions that can be drawn and no evidence to suggest a causal relationship between Abbott's formulas and this reported case. If additional information is available, we will investigate further per our complaint handling process.
