Testimony presented at public hearing on regulation of tissue and organ transplantation.
It appears that minimal regulation of milk banking may be prudent to protect recipient infants from the possibility of disease transmission through unscreened raw milk. However, these must be written in a manner, apart from those for organ and tissue banks, to address the unique properties of human milk. It is essential that this valuable resource be promoted and access improved so that all infants and children in need may benefit.
