Oh please, this is yet another of these sacrificing breastfeeding on the
altar of our ignorance. And why on earth could the mother not breastfeeding
if she was bitten by a cat? Even if the cat did have rabies. And why 7
days? Where did such an number come from. After all, you can develop
rabies up to a year after contact. Are they talking about the vaccine? The
vaccine will hurt the baby? Where is the public health department getting
its information?
