I just read this today on Facebook and I’m worried-

Research suggests that Similac and Enfamil baby formula may be toxic and cause necrotizing enterocolitis in infants.

Known fact that there are risks in giving premies formula. There’s also risks in letting them starve to death…

Milk banks. There are kosher ones. The ingredients in formula are garbage.

Please. Don't, just don't. Formula is NOT garbage.

Are you volunteering to go on a no:eggs, dairy, fish, chicken, wheat, onion and garlic diet for my next kid?
Because standard milk banks don’t stock that and when I did it I didn’t have enough milk.

There are no kosher milk banks where I live and I myself unfortunately don’t have any milk. But BH I am raising four beautiful, intelligent and well adjusted children that all were fed this so called „garbage“. My kids are actually above average, physically and mentally.

It is dangerous for premies under certain circumstances. I haven’t seen anything about danger in full term infants. (Other than recalls, but that happens with food too). If your baby is a premie, go consult with your dr. Otherwise, get off Facebook

If 1 in 4 babies died from eating Enfamil how is this formula still on the shelf?
I remember when in Israel there was a formula that was killing babies they pulled it off the shelf as soon as they found out.

This.
What are your options.

There is no great conspiracy to harm people’s children. Medicine/science/companies do the best they can with the information and materials available to them.

If it's what I think it is (I can't open the link), this is not new & also specifically for premature babies. No need to panic or switch formulas.
