This article just came in and needs to be Weissingerized.  Just got up from
a post-migraine nap, so I'll let someone else fix it:

BREASTFEEDING CUTS INFANT DEATH 20% IN US

CHICAGO - Breast-fed children in the United States are 20 percent less
likely to die during the first year of life than whose who are not nursed,
according to a study released Sunday.

Researchers at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences said
they based their finding on a survey that included nearly 9,000 infant
deaths in 48 states.

It found breast-fed babies were 20 percent less likely to die between 1 and
12 months of life than those who were not, and that the longer babies were
breast-fed, the lower the risk of early death.
