I think Marsha and Arly have said it well. There should be no
need for human milk substitutes at all, but we're a long way
from that happening.

While Code compliance is not a panacea, it is an important step
and may serve as incentive for other companies to do the same.
We can help in that direction by letting other companies know that
this is an important code and that we, as LCs and other HCPs, will
support Evenflo's policy change with our recommendations to clients
and with our own pocketbooks.

Hats off to Marsha and others who are working to make these
small steps that will, in time, add up to big progress -
breastfeeding being the way babies are fed.
