Re: the case of a mother whose baby's frozen cord blood was reported to be HTLV
positive
I got the impression from the original post that the cord blood was virus
positive, not antibody positive, in which case baby seems to be infected.
If indeed the baby was HTLV positive, could breastfeeding do further harm?

I am totally uneducated about HTLV myself and have never seen it discussed or
tested for here, so am grateful for all information on the subject.
