This reminds me of Patricia Hatherly who said in her presentation on GOLD09
that a milkblister is due to HPV. This was completely new to me. A milk
blister doesn't look at all like a wart. Can anybody explain?

Onderwerp: thoughts on HPV and breastmilk

Given the prevalence of HPV and the prevalence of breastfeeding, why are we
not seeing hordes of newborns with warts in their mouths?  Has anyone,
anywhere, EVER heard of such a case?
It is entirely possible that babies who are breastfed are more resistant to
infection by HPV from their mothers than they would be if they were not
being breastfed.  HPV has been around a lot longer than we have known about
it.  Sounds like a specious reason to fear breastfeeding to me.
