The vulnerable babies, who were all in intensive care in neonatal units, developed septicaemia after being infected with bacteria in their food

Health chiefs launched an urgent probe after the vulnerable babies, who were all in intensive care, developed septicaemia after being infected by a bug in their liquid food.

They said London-based ITH Pharma Limited, which made the liquid food, had identified an “incident” that had contaminated the batches.

The baby who died was in the neonatal intensive care unit at St Thomas’ Hospital in Central London.

A hospital spokeswoman said the infection was discovered on May 31 but the baby died the following day. She said two other babies also affected “are responding well to antibiotics”.
