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

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.

hepatitis C virus. Lancet Feb. 4, 1995;345:289-91.
