Tracking cronobacter infections to monitor formula shortage impact
Health officials will formally track cronobacter infections as part of a CDC watchlist update. The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists agreed to add the germ to national reporting, with states asked to notify, though not required. Cronobacter, found in environments, can cause deadly meningitis and bloodstream infections in young infants, impacting the 2021 Abbott formula recall and nationwide shortage. The rule aims to standardize case definitions and reporting, boosting surveillance nationwide.
