"Infants aged 0-5 months who are not breastfed have seven-fold and five-
fold increased risks of death from diarrhoea and pneumonia, respectively,
compared with infants who are exclusively breastfed.(14) At the same age,
non-exclusive rather than exclusive breastfeeding results in more than two-
fold increased risks of dying from diarrhoea or pneumonia.(15) 6-11-month-
old infants who are not breastfed also have an increased risk of such
deaths.(16)"
