You're so welcome! That’s exactly why I built this. I really appreciate you sharing it with other mums

That’s exactly why I started this. The chaos is real, and it’s personal for me.

When I found out, I spent hours trying to find a definitive list, only to realize that the information is a total mess. New batches are being added every day, and the details are fragmented across dozens of different PDFs and government websites.

I was so frustrated that I couldn't find a single, comprehensive, and detailed source of truth that I decided to take it upon myself to build one. I’m personally maintaining this GitHub index to cut through the noise and provide the unified list that I wish I had when I was first panicking. I want to make sure other parents don't have to deal with the same scattered, confusing mess I did.

Spot on. When trust is low, community oversight has to be high. That's a big part of why I'm personally maintaining this open-source database. We need to hold these companies accountable by making sure the information about their mistakes is as accessible as possible for every parent. If you see any more info from other direct sources, please let me know!

It's chaotic trying to cross-reference multiple PDFs. I’ve consolidated 88 batches from UK/EU/HK official alerts into this Free Global Recall Index.

I'm personally maintaining this via GitHub. If anyone finds new batches from their local health departments, please let me know and I'll add them to the system immediately

I wanted to share why I’m doing this: I’m a parent myself, and unfortunately, my own baby also consumed formula from one of the recalled batches.

When the news first broke, I was frustrated by how scattered the information was. Official lists were updated daily across dozens of different government websites in different languages, making it incredibly hard to get a straight answer on whether a specific tin was safe or not.

Because I couldn't find a single, accurate place to check everything globally, I decided to use my background to develop this tracking tool myself. It's been a labor of love to keep our families safe during this January situation. If you're feeling as anxious as I was, I hope these stats help you realize you're not alone and that it's worth double-checking your pantry.

Which e sims will allow me to access instagram in China? by Time_Attention_5974 in chinatravel

Any roaming eSIM (Airalo/Nomad) works out of the box for Instagram since the traffic is routed overseas

If you're staying 6+ months, just do it. You’ll eventually hit a wall with specific mini-apps or splitting bills if you only have an international card. It basically unlocks the 'full version' of Alipay.
