Anecdotal Case- I had a mom who's baby stayed in the hospital a week after
birth. Mother was expressing BM for night feedings. To make a long horror
story short, her baby received someone else's EBM. Mother fought for 3 days
to have milk tested, 3 labs showed that her baby had received milk tainted
with Hepatis C. Mother was never cautioned to not breastfeed, they just
tested baby periodically for a year. It was a nightmare for this family,
but no one came up with the disease.
