In today’s modern warfare, there is an increased risk of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear weapons use and of nuclear emergencies due to damage to existing nuclear power plants. Most international agencies and ministries of health have guidelines for the general population about what to do in the event of a Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) emergency.
However, an urgent gap exists in guidance specifically for the breastfeeding population - there is no one place where agencies or individuals can go to access vital information about the safety of breastfeeding in CBRN crises. The Infant Feeding in Emergencies (IFE) Core Group has taken up the initiative, along with the Johns Hopkins Center for Humanitarian Health to create guidelines for the breastfeeding population in the context of the most common chemical and biological agents along with guidance for the first three days after a nuclear power plant emergency.
