Linda:  The actual transmission of hepatitis C was no higher in breastfed
than bottle-fed babies.  Check out the following:

Lin HH, Kao JH, Hsu HY, et al.  Absence of infection in breast-fed infants
born to hepatitis C virus-infected mothers. Journal of Pediatrics. 1995
Apr;126(4):589-91.

Paccagnini S, et al.  Perinatal transmission and manifestation of
hepatitis C virus infection in a high risk population.  Pediatr Infect Dis
J 1995;14(3):195-99.

Zanetti AR, Tanzi E, Paccagnini, et al. Mother-to-infant transmission of
hepatitis C virus.  Lancet Feb. 4, 1995;345:289-91.
