I had to come here just to report that breastmilk is a bio hazard

LOL!

No, the best part is that this happened about an hour from where I live.  I love it when people in KY make national news.  It's always something like this.

Sorry, if this was already posted.

If some drunken inmate squirted her breastmilk at my face, I'd be freaking pissed.  BM is one of the ways that HIV can be spread.  Nasty.

Oh, I'm with you.  I didn't mean to come across as making light of the situation.  I'd be pissed too.  It just says in the article there is debate about use of the term.  I just hope she doesn't drink and feed her baby, though.

All body fluids are.  Someone my brother was arresting spit in his face and he had to go to the hospital to get some sort of shot and then had to go later for a follow up.

No, I know!  I'm thinking that bio hazard really isn't a bad term for breastmilk, though!  In a situation like that it is a bio hazard.   I think women get too attached to the idea of bfing, and it's such an emotional experience (this coming from the girl who just weaned her 10mo old!) that people take it all personally if bm is talked about in a negative light.  People forget that it is a bodily fluid!

Good point.  You're exactly right.
