The US is facing a baby formula shortage, prompting the White House to import formula from overseas. Despite these efforts, retailers struggle to keep shelves stocked, especially with specialty formulas. Parents express concerns over availability, while retailers like CVS and Target impose purchase limits. Production issues at Abbott Nutrition's plant due to weather have exacerbated the shortage. The government, through Operation Fly Formula, is working to alleviate the crisis, but challenges remain.
