Subject: Tsunami relief includes infant formula


{This article demonstrates how small, private relief efforts may be providing infant formula despite international guidelines that discourage it.]

http://www.roanoke.com/news/roanoke/wb/46396

"Canned foods, diapers, baby formula, bottled water, paper towels, duct tape and more were shipped."

<snip>

"In the town of Mirissa, the couple found throngs of displaced Sri Lankans using a temple for a makeshift camp. They had no baby formula and were trying to prepare food with only a fire and one pot.

The Samarasinghes used their own money to buy a large propane stove, several hundred pounds of infant formula and medical supplies for the camp."

(these are all the mentions of infant formula, see link above for full article)
