New York City Mayor Eric Adams has declared a state of emergency over the nationwide shortage of infant formula.

The mayor signed the emergency executive order which will empower the city's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection to prevent price gouging for formula, a Sunday statement from his office announced."The nationwide infant formula shortage has caused unimaginable pain and anxiety for families across New York -- and we must act with urgency," Adams said in the statement.

"In Long Island City, Queens, a CVS was cleaned out except for six containers of Similac Alimentum, priced at $14.49 each. A smaller grocery store across the street in Long Island City with an otherwise very full section of baby food had only four cans of Similac For Spit-Up priced at $25.99 each.
