A little while ago in here, there was a discussion that HIV+ infection 
with formula feeding babies was higher than breastfeeding ones, which 
was presumed to be about the gut irritation and close proximity to the 
virus via the mother. (Versus the protective nature of the milk on the 
gut, in reducing the transfer of the virus directly).

This isn't mentioned in the excellent WABA release from today, World 
AIDS day, that Pamela posted earlier.

Does anyone have a cite or reference to this, or am I 
hallucinating/misremembering?

Many Thanks

Morgan
