Data analysis shows that San Antonio has the highest out-of-stock rate for baby formula...
Parents Jaret Anchondo and Estefania Chapa sit with their 5-month-old daughter, Rosalie, while she drinks her from bottle. Anchondo and Chapa have been having trouble finding their prescribed baby formula for Rosalie, and they’ve spent hours driving around the city looking for it.Estefania Chapa, 20, has looked all over San Antonio the past several weeks trying desperately to find baby formula for her 5-month-old daughter, Rosalie.
Chapa and little Rosalie are not alone. Thanks to a major recall of the most popular maker of baby formula combined with existing supply chain shortages, thousands of mothers in the San Antonio metro area and the United States as a whole are struggling to feed their babies. Chapa had a brief glimmer of hope recently, when by some miracle she found four cans of her daughter’s Similac formula at a San Antonio CVS store. The store, however, didn’t accept WIC, a state assistance program that helps mothers purchase formula. Chapa was forced to return the $22 cans to the shelves.Recall effects

Switching a baby’s formula is extremely difficult on the baby, Valavalkar said, because babies’ systems are still very fragile and the slightest change in their nutrition can wreak havoc on their bodies.Valavalkar has been reaching out to representatives who work for formula companies, as well as wholesalers, to find anything she can.
