This week's (AUG. 17) TIME magazine edition (intenational) has a section
called "numbers" (page 10), giving information like: 185 million: the
number of tea cups consumed every day in the UK, 2.99 trillion: the total
amount of savings held by Germans, AND 200,000: The number of children
around the world who were infected with HIV last year through breast feeding.

I remember there was a figure for the number of babies dying because of NOT
breastfeeding. Does anyone have this number, with a reference? I want to
write the TIME.
