Mother's milk helps to block HIV

The address is: http://www.nature.com/news/2005/051017/full/051017-17.html

In the article is the statement:
"Every year, about 200,000 infants acquire the virus from their mother's 
milk, according to UNICEF, the United Nations children's fund. Between 10% 
and 20% of infants with HIV-positive mothers catch the virus after being 
breastfed for two years. "


I've looked for where Unicef has stated this number of children "acquire 
the virus from their mother's milk", specifically excluding pregnancy and 
other transmission.  Can anyone give me an lead as to where it might be 
found?
