I saw this video in August, at a meeting of the Northern Virginia
Regional Perinatal Coordinating Council Breastfeeding Task Force (say that 3
times fast).  It was clear to me then that the video was not produced by a drug
company qua drug company but by Mead Johnson, in their capacity as a formula
manufacturer.  It accounts for the many inaccuracies in the video.
