US-MED–Infant Formula-Botulism Recall-Explainer
Preliminary tests find germ that causes botulism in ByHeart baby formula
SUMMARY: California health officials say tests show that ByHeart baby formula linked to a botulism outbreak contained the type of bacteria that produces the toxin that has sickened at least 13 infants in 10 states. No deaths have been reported. The most recent cases were confirmed in November. Consumers should stop using ByHeart powdered infant formula immediately. ByHeart officials this weekend recalled two lots of the company’s Whole Nutrition Infant Formula. Botulism is a rare but serious disease that can cause paralysis and death. Symptoms can take weeks to develop.

US–Wintry Weather
Arctic air hits much of the US, bringing snow to some areas and very chilly temperatures to Florida
SUMMARY: A blast of the season’s first frigid air was bearing down on much of the U.S., bringing the prospect of snow to parts of the country and plunging temperatures in Florida — though it may not get cold enough there for iguanas to tumble from the treetops. National Weather Service forecasters said frigid Arctic air will pour into the eastern two-thirds of the country on Monday, bringing with it the chance for record temperatures in the U.S. Southeast. That includes all of Florida, where temperatures in parts of the state were near 80 degrees Fahrenheit just a day ago.
