Do FFers know this risk?

Do most FFing parents know powdered infant formulas are not commercially sterile products? How much of a risk is a E. sakazakii infection? Is it only a risk to premature and low-weight babies? According to the WHO article below, "infants under 2 months of age are at greatest risk."
According to the FDA, "a

*I* have a trigger happy RAV finger?>>>
No, no. She's complaining about me there, because I said in a PP that I "know where the RAV button is and I use it plenty". Have no fear, Fio.
Besides, I prefer to use the term "quick-draw RAV finger", because it gives me a jaunty, Wild West kind of persona. That's me, Old Quick-Draw McHays! ;O)
You tend to do it in a different context, such as clarifying your *debate* points.
Debator A says "I think anyone who BF's is crazy". Debator B calls them on it, asks for examples, proof, etc. Debator A comes back and says "well I've known a lot of crazy people who BFed". Debator B asks what makes her define them as crazy. Debator A says "well there was the one lady who was bi-polar and was BFing and another I knew was schizophrenic". Debator B asks if there were any more than those two, and it turns out Debator A was basing herself on two unique examples of people with mental health issues, and labelling them as "crazy" to boot (which is probably RAV-worthy but I'm not going there for this example). Debator A then goes and says "I never said everyone who BF's is crazy" and asks for proof. Debator B says it was in post # ZYB.123 and Debator A says "I said anyone, not everyone". Debator B rolls their eyes virtually at Debator A and says "and your only examples were two people" and Debator A says "yes but those two people were valid examples of people around me" and Debator B says "yes but that doesn't mean "a lot of people" and debator A says "where did I say a lot? proof please" and Debator B searches through the thread that is now a gazillion posts long to find post ZYB.22 that says Debator A knows "a lot of crazy ppl who BF" and Debator A says "oh to clarify, I meant that all the people I have ever met who BF are crazy, therefore 100% of the people I know...not necessarily a lot of everyone else on the planet who BF's".
THAT is called backpeddling
Debator A then gets called on backpeddling and says it's not fair and no one else calls the others on it when they do it.

Good point. You know, nobody ever calls me Jennie around here, but that is the name I'm usually called IRL. Except I spell it "Jenny" myself.
I love musicals, and "Annie Get Your Gun" is one of my faves. :O)
Yes, you were welcomed here, into a virtual debate room, to debate the merits of breastmilk vs. formula. NOT what one word means or what one poster meant.
Again, if you are clear on your OWN words and we don't have to ask for clarification for the next 300 posts, it could be a lot more fun for everyone involved, but speaking for myself, I find it weary to find that 599 of 670 posts are about who insulted who, what was not actually said, "quote and post number please" etc. We might as well delete 599 posts and end up with 71 posts and we might all be happier.

«***Who said she does, and how would that person know?***
Thistle, she said she knows where the rav button is and uses it all the time.»
Hold on a sec. You told me you know I have a RAV trigger happy finger and your proof is that *Thistle* said she knows where the RAV button is and uses it? Do you think we are the same person? Get us mixed up? I dunno but it seems rather confusing to prove this to us using her words...
