Pediatricians Renew Push for Nationwide Raw Milk Ban

The renewed recommendation puts the professional body at odds with a rising raw milk movement in the United States.
Why now: Raw milk has been gaining popularity, and the country's leading pediatricians' group is reigniting a public health debate with a call for a nationwide ban.
