Mayor Bloomberg, not satisfied with depriving New Yorkers of smoking cigarettes soaked in trans-fats, is launching a multi-million dollar push to have all babies in NYC breast feeding for at least 6 months.
“We don’t yet have any hospitals in New York City that meet national ‘baby-friendly’ standards,” Bloomberg’s health commissioner, Dr. Thomas Frieden, said at a parenting conference last week.
“That means getting formula out of the nursery. It means putting the baby on the breast immediately after birth. It means that every person who interacts with that mother and child is supportive and encouraging of breast-feeding.”
Come on ladies, whip ‘em out! It’s for the good of the city!
