Some women have stopped breast-feeding their baby because of the concern that human milk may be changed due to the corona vaccine. But the recent survey has allayed the worries of such mothers. who had previously refused vaccination. According to the UCSF Researchers survey, mother’s milk is safe, even in times when the mother has received the Covid vaccine.
Actually, vaccines against corona have no effect on mother’s milk. This claim is not ours but WHO’s and researchers’ too. According to a small study, it not only protects pregnant and lactating women, but also if a woman who has been vaccinated with the corona breastfeeds a child, the shots are not transferred to the baby.
For example, at a time when the Corona period is going on. During this time, most of the mothers who breastfeed their baby are worried that taking the corona vaccine should not harm the baby. But now you do not need to worry, because a new study has revealed that the corona vaccine does not have any negative effect on mother’s milk.
The study was done by researchers from the University of California-San Francisco (UCSF). According to this study, the corona vaccine is safe for pregnant and breast-feeding women and preliminary evidence shows that shots given against Covid19 do not transfer to the baby.
Researchers analyzed breast milk from 7 women after receiving the mRNA-Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. No traces of vaccines were found in breast milk, which are known to prevent the transmission of SARS-cov2. This virus causes the occurrence of corona.
Corona vaccine during breastfeeding provides the first direct data on safety, according to a detailed study in JAMA Pediatrics. So at the same time, the World Health Organization also says that lactating women should be vaccinated. However, the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine states that there is a slight risk of vaccine nanoparticles or mRNA entering breast tissue or being transferred into milk, which could theoretically affect the infant’s immunity.
assistant professor of maternal-fetal medicine at UCSF, said: “The results strengthen current recommendations that mRNA vaccines are safe in breast-feeding, and that breastfeeding women who should receive the COVID vaccine should not stop breastfeeding. “
The head Doctor of the World Health Organization, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, appealed to Corona positive mothers to continue to breastfeed their newborn. In a press conference held in Geneva, Dr Tedros said that the World Health Organization has studied the issue and found that the benefits of breastfeeding for the child are greater than the risk of virus infection.
