I just emailed ABC and told them they had an innacuracy.  That the WHO 
does not say up to two years, but says a _minimum_ of two, and there 
after as long as both mutually desire.

I also then stated the issue was why the AAP had cut it in half.  :-)

If you click on the link to leave a comment, it then asks you if you 
want to just email them a correction etc, instead.  Others may wish to 
do so!  :-)
