Great article! I do have one question though. How in heck does one pronounce B’peh?
I am Jewish but I think there is no need in Torah for Mbp. It is a custom, and not a very good one, not a commandment.
This article was reposted on Yeshiva World News with the following comment. I cannot vouch for the comment, just passing it along.

She actually came out and identified the 2 doctors in the DOH, Dr Susan Blank and Dr Julie Schillinger who intimidated her.
Yes, and these are the same doctors who intimidated the other families, where the DOH suspects neonatal herpes perhaps caused by MBP.
It is well known in the NYC Dept. of Health, that both of these doctors have an agenda to eliminate the practice of Metzizah, and to regulate Bris Milah.
