Doctors are needing specialty formula for their premature babies! Exclusive breastfeeding should be the priority of mothers with full term babies. Formula feeding requires clean water, very little clean water in Gaza, requires fuel for sterilizing feeding equipment, very little fuel in Gaza, requires refrigeration for any extra formula made, no electricity in Gaza, storage of powdered infant formula requires a cool dry place, tent living will not keep stored formula. Breast milk inactivates all kinds of pathogens because it has antibodies and stem cells that promote health. Formula feeding in places with no infrastructure is a death sentence for infants, breastfeeding should be the priority.
This insanity must end. NOW!
