>What a disgusting thing for the government to be doing.
There is a significant association between bed-sharing and infant death. An adult bed presents far more hazards of entrapment, suffocation and strangulation than a properly-designed crib or bassinet. I haven't seen the advert in question and can't comment on how accurately it conveys the evidence, but I think that it's absolutely right to strongly warn parents about the risks of bed-sharing.
If you think that it's disgusting for a government agency to try and save the lives of babies, that's your prerogative.
