Right...  :-s
I haven't seen any research, but was fascinated by this sentence: "Dr 
Leatham, at University College London, who is researching for the charity 
Against Breast Cancer, has discovered that breast cancer patients have a low 
level of natural immunity and so their immune systems needs a boost."
It's all the wrong way around: if these women would have been breastfed long 
term... what would their immunity have been like?!?!
Not such a big need for the bf-disrupting vaccine if the immune system 
defends better against cancer in the first place...

Subject: [LACTNET] breast cancer vaccine that prevents BF


Can't find anything on this other than the June 1st article in the 
Telegraph.  If you haven't heard about this prepare to be horrified.  What 
exactly do they expect will happen when the mother's milk does come in?  A 
massive allergic reaction?
