Oomis,
The following is from a paper published on the NIH site.
“In conclusion, our findings indicate that HSV-1 and HSV-2 are shed into breast milk in a significant proportion of puerperals and breast-feeding may be an important route for the transmission of these viruses to infants.”
Yet the mayor, through his aggressive “Latch on NY” program is attempting to force all women to nurse. Yet it seems that the risks of exposure to HSV are more significant via nursing than Via MbP which he is trying to outlaw.
What hypocrisy. Or is it shame of Jewish customs?
