White House Advises Parents Worried About Starving Babies to ‘Call Their Doctor’ - LOL Biden Is Fucking DONE

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said parents who are worried about their baby’s immediate needs for formula amid a nationwide shortage should “call their doctor” in a press briefing on Thursday.

After a reporter asked Psaki what should parents who cannot find baby formul do, she detailed the steps the White House is taking to address the baby formula shortage.

“I’m just wondering if you’re a parent today and you go to the store, you can’t find any formula on the shelves, as is being reported across the country. What is what is the step that they should take?” the reporter asked.

Psaki noted that the reporter raised “important public health questions,” but did not provide immediate steps for parents to take.

Psaki continued:

But what I can report on here, what I can convey to all of you is what we’re doing to address exactly that concern, which is taking every step we can to ensure there is supply on store shelves and we have increased the supply over the last four weeks. And as the President, as I noted at the top of this briefing we’re gonna take every step we can to cut red tape to a to ensure we’re working with with retailers like WalMart that we’re working with Wreckit and Gerber and others who can produce more to ensure we are getting supply out to stores and out to retailers so that parents don’t have that concern. But beyond that, that’s what I can read out for all of you from here.

The reporter pressed Psaki for immediate steps families can take amid the formula shortage, to which Psaki said, “call their doctor.”

“We would certainly encourage any parent who has concerns about their child’s health or well being to call their doctor or pediatrician,” Psaki said.

President Joe Biden’s supply chain crisis has hit families harder due to its impact on baby formula. The formula shortage has been increasing since the end of last year.

As Breitbart News reported:

Datasembly also found that in July 2021, the [Out of Stock Percentage] OOS% moved into the double digits and then started to increase significantly towards the end of November 2021 ,where it went from 11 percent nationwide to 31 precent by the week starting April 3, 2022.
For the week starting April 24, there were six states that had baby formula OOS percentages higher than 50 percent:
• Iowa, South Dakota, and North Dakota were 50-51 percent.
• Missouri was 52 percent.
•Texas was 53 percent and Tennessee was 54 percent
• There were 26 states that had 40-50 percent out of stock compared to three weeks ago when there were seven.

Biden’s administration has only begun to address the formula shortage this week.

"frail and nearly blind for most of history..."

And how long has baby formula been around?

Modern baby formula was invented in the 1860s.

 

[MadStan]

Modern baby formula was invented in the 1860s.

Yeah, and before that we were all blind and frail, right?

I'm sure we will see some rednecks claim their babies died from no formula - instead of child neglect, but really lets get a grip on reality before running around thinking that a shortage of baby formula is going to usher in "the great dying" of millions of babies in America,

It is just so preposterous.

Humans were short, frail and nearly blind for most of history.

that's mostly BS, if you didnt have decent vision and depth perception, you fucking got killed by a big ass cat or something. we literally evolved to see color to pick out fruit. humans probably had way better vision than we do now, because staying inside weakens the delopment of vision. look at how many asians developed nearsightedness and myopia in the least 60 years.

Nutrition is incredibly important for your health. The average North Korean is six inches shorter than your average South Korean.

 

[pen burger]

Oh for fucks sake.

You know infants were raised by human beings for 2 million fucking years without baby formula.

Can we all just Get a fucking grip?

Everyone keeps saying shit like this and it is true but it is also true that the graph of the historical infant mortality rate looks like this:

 

[Linkola's IT Guy]

its not the governments job to ensure there is baby formula anymore than it is their job to ensure there is bread.

The government has a responsibility to provide for the well-being of its citizens. If there are pragmatic policies they can pursue to improve this situation, they should do so. Even if there is nothing they can really do, Biden is the president so it's going to be seen as his responsibility.

 

[Screw Danlon]

even worse demands it to be well done by putting it in the microwave.

God, what are you even teaching your baby, you monster? Do you also put ketchup on it?

How much of that is due to formula VS other medical improvements?

Not rhetorical, I honestly have no idea.

Starvation negatively affects your eyesight. Since starvation has been common for most of history it is safe to assume that poor eyesight was common too.

It's up for debate which is better.

I don't know but the point is that if you're going to make the "for millions of years" argument, logically that goes for all medical/nutritional advancements.

100 years ago 1 in 10 babies died. The shit we have now (like formula) has got that down to ~1 in 250.

 

[T0oCoolFool]

It is just so preposterous.

Is anyone saying that millions of babies will die tho? All I see is most people acknowledging that, as a society, we have become very reliant on formula for a number of reasons, and you can't simply switch back to breastmilk for those same reasons. If we were to "go back" to how things were, it would take years to get there.

In the meantime, without a steady supply of formula, lots of babies will become sick, and yes, there will be deaths, though not millions. At bare minimum, lots of babies will end up without the proper nutrients that are absolutely crucial during the first months of life to grow a healthy brain and body. The long term effects of lack of proper nutrients cannot be understated.

More to the point, you will have a bunch of parents that are sleep deprived and angry as fuck because their babies are too hungry to sleep. I can tell you from experience than even during the best of times, sleep deprived parents are stressed the fuck out and it's not pretty to witness. This lack of sleep, even with plenty of formula, leads to arguments, domestic violence, and some people snap and hurt the baby.

Now just think of how much worse this stress and abuse will be when you have to ration your baby's much needed formula. This will undoubtedly lead to more abuse of the babies, domestic violence, strained relationships, and may well be the final straw on the camel's back that leads to waves of political violence. Try telling a bunch of angry parents to calm down when they have a hungry baby and there is no relief in sight. Shit will get ugly quick.

 

[Mothra1988]

So let me get this straight...

If a kid dies in a city of 1 million, surrounded by food and other mothers, we are going to put blood on the WH.

This is just too fucking funny.

I can see if now, a woman with dry breasts and a dead baby in the middle of Times Square screaming that her child had to die and there was nothing that could be done.

Oh this is just too good...

I'm so glad you will never reproduce. LOL.

Considering how he's simped for Disney Corporation and their child grooming, that's probably for the best.

 

[Blobby's Murder Knife]

100 years ago 1 in 10 babies died. The shit we have now (like formula) has got that down to ~1 in 250.

Also 1 in 100 mothers died at birth. Retrards screech that 'HOW DID WE SURVIVE?!". Well, moron, 9 of 10 babies did survive and 99 of 100 mothers did survive and that was all that mattered. The babies and mothers that died were collateral damage - sucks to be you.

 

[Blacklight]

In a country literally dying from overeating, full of fat cunts and excess, we are really going to go down the road of "my kid will die if it doesn't have powder" routine. Literally hundreds of millions of persons globally would laugh at this and think "idiots".

And we didn't want a nanny state...except when we want literally a nanny state.

You're really proving people with those monkey avatars are just a special breed of retard aren't you?

 

[Disc]

its not the governments job to ensure there is baby formula anymore than it is their job to ensure there is bread.

Originally I thought you were sarcastic because that plays so well to the "bread and circuses" line that it made you seem like you were implying it's an essential.

Sure, most of our inventions only came about in the very most recent parts of our species' existence. Our life expectancies also skyrocketed in the same period.

In the case of formula, specifically, it has it's ups and it's downs (some of the downs make this problem worse, not better). One of the big downs is that once a mom's body hasn't been breastfeeding for a while, it stops producing milk. so once they've been on formula for a while, they can't just go back to the proverbial tap, they've gotta stay on formula.

Moreover, it's not necessarily easy to switch sources. After all, breast or bottle they're only really suited to one type of drink for the first few months, and changing it suddenly on them can cause gastric issues.

Lastly, and this is probably the big one, the scale of the problem makes it clear it's a government-scale issue, not a business-scale one (like say, Aptamil shortages from a few years ago). It's not one brand running dry, it's a whole bunch at once.

 

[Agent Abe Caprine]

Humans were short, frail and nearly blind for most of history. Also there's no way humanity has existed for 2,000,000 years. Even the most liberal estimates only say 300,000.

Homo erectus was about 2 million years ago. That's probably where he got it from. Homo sapiens are the top of the line homos. Peak homo performance 300,000 years in the making.

 

[make_it_so]

Peak homo performance 300,000 years in the making.

That sounds so hilarious when out of context.
