[afro-nets] Breastfeeding and nutrition approaches for infants of HIV+ mothers

["Dr. Uzodinma A. ADIRIEJE" <afrepton@yahoo.com>]

Dear Everyone,

I am wondering what information and experiences you might have to 
share on the enforcement, adaptation and implementation of the 
International Breastfeeding Code, and issues around Baby milk 
substitute, Complimentary feeding, Exclusive breastfeeding and 
Child Health for babies who are HIV positive and or whose mothers 
are HIV positive; especially in resource poor settings and inadequate 
health services regimes.

Can we pay some attention to this and share our country/local experiences, 
successes, failures and concerns?
   
  Better Health for All, 
   
  Uzo'
