It looks like if your infant mortality is less than 40 per 1000 it is better for a HIV +ve Mom not to breast feed. This is based on a retrospective statiscical model so take it for whats its worth.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
