•“Whereas universal precautions DO NOT APPLY to human breast milk,  gloves 
may be worn by health care workers in situations where exposures to  breast 
milk 
might be frequent, for example in breast milk banking.”  
–Centers for Disease Control. MMWR 1988; 37:377-82 
•“Contact with  breast milk does not constitute on occupational exposure 
risk 
as defined  by OSHA standards.” 
–Committee on Pediatric AIDS, AAP. Pediatrics 1995;  96:977-79 
 
*************
But how about preventing exposure towards the milk from the person handling  
it? 

Warmly,
