Andrew Jacobs, a reporter for The New York Times, discusses his article, “Opposition to Breastfeeding Resolution by U.S. Stuns World Health Officials.” Recently, the World Health Organization presented a resolution aimed to promote breastfeeding and restrict the promotion of infant formula. Jacobs tells us the backstory on how the U.S. reacted to the resolution. Critics argue that the Trump administration is going against decades of evidence that supports breastfeeding, siding with the corporate interests of formula manufacturers instead of the best interests of newborns. This segment is guest hosted by Matt Katz.
