dc.description.abstractThe AIDS virus has been identified in breast milk which is donated by expectant and recently delivered mothers in maternity hospitals). In maternity hospitals, where the facilities exist for the treatment of pre-term infants, breast milk is collected from mothers premature even those who have not delivered premature babies) and it is used in its raw state to feed the children. The possibility of some of these mothers being infected with the AIDS virus is high in Third World countries. The premature infants have to be fed with breast milk as they are at risk of being infected if fed with commercial milk formulas. Commercially available milk sterilizers are available in Europe but they are very costly.en_ZA
