FDA Commissioner Robert Califf was questioned by lawmakers again on Wednesday during a congressional hearing on why the agency took months to inspect and shutter the plant despite learning of potential problems as early as September. U.S. Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Robert Califf attends a hearing of the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., April 28, 2022.
FDA staff began zeroing in on Abbott’s plant last fall while tracking several bacterial infections in infants who had consumed formula from the facility. The four cases occurred between September and January, causing hospitalizations and two deaths. The FDA planned to begin inspecting the plant on Dec. 30, according to Califf’s testimony. But Abbott warned that about a dozen plant employees had tested positive for COVID-19 and requested a delay. As a result, the FDA didn’t begin its inspection until Jan. 31
