This comment on a study on infant feeding and childhood cancer, which showed
less in the breastfed baby. David MK et al Lancet 1988;August 13:365-8.  By
Dr. S. Gellis.

"There will be much concern raised by the publication of this study, placing
*undue guilt* (my emphasis) on women who for various reasons were unable to
breastfeed. It will however, strengthen the importance of the establishment
of day care centers in the working place to enable employed women to
continue breastfeeding."

Jack Newman, MD, FRCPC
