One campaign, two opportunities to monetize leads
In February 2022, Abbott Nutrition announced it was recalling specific lots of Similac formula after several babies consumed formula produced at its Sturgis, MI plant and were later hospitalized and diagnosed with Cronobacter sakazakii or Salmonella infections. Sadly, two infant deaths have been tied to Cronobacter infections.
Law firms advertising for the NEC toxic baby formula lawsuit against Abbott realized that many confused parents reached out looking for assistance with the Similac recall lawsuits.
SimplyConvert is the only smart intake platform with criteria that allows law firms to assist a parent with either concern within the same marketing campaign, ensuring firms are helping as many clients as possible while maximizing advertising dollars. Knowing that your intake platform responds to real-time adjustments in criteria to ensure your firm monetizes every lead is just one of the many benefits of using SimplyConvert for your client intake needs.
Toxic Baby Formulas Causing NEC
Each year thousands of premature babies develop necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) after receiving formula or milk fortifiers. NEC is a serious intestinal disease that occurs when bacteria invade the infant’s intestinal wall. The bacteria result in infection and inflammation that can destroy the intestinal tissue. This can leave permanent scars or narrow parts of the infant’s intestine, causing lifelong complications. In severe NEC cases, the complete destruction of intestine tissue can lead to severe infection and, in many cases, death.
Premature infants that are fed cow’s milk-based formula are at a significantly higher risk for developing NEC. Formula manufacturers fail to warn parents about the risks.
Similac Recall Litigation
According to the FDA, complaints about the outbreak of a foodborne pathogen, the rare infection called Cronobacter sakazakii, have been reported by six infants who were fed specific batches of now recalled Similac formula. The recall includes powdered formulas of Similac, Similac PM 60/40, Alimentum, EleCare, and EleCare Jr. All of the products were produced in Abbott Lab’s Sturgis, MI factory.
