Mary,

Please check out the La Leche League International website - llli.org - and type in "breastfeeding in emergencies" in the search.  That will take you to a comprehensive article with links to additional information from international sources about this issue.

> Need some references in a hurry.  Administration at my hospital is asking for formula donation for hurricane relief efforts.  Ugh.  I need WHO and UNICEF references to why this is not recommended ASAP.
> Something very succinct (not wordy) that will be paid attention to would be best.
