CDC: 2021 Breastfeeding Report Card

New from Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC)

As part of their 2021 Breastfeeding Report Card, the CDC has added a new feature to their statistics.  They now offer a map of breastfeeding initiation rates by county.   This information certainly gives providers and policy makers great information for utilization of resources.
