Re: Hep C and breastfeeding

The Public Health Division, Victorian Government Department of Human
Services (Australia) has published a booklet "Management, Control and
Prevention of Hepatatis C: Guidelines for Medical Practioners (Oct 96).
on page 5 they state :
<The risk of transmission through breast milk is considered minimal>
The publication is available at
