AgreementStrong agreement

Most discussions emphasize the study’s findings that COVID-19-infected mothers' milk does not contain the virus, with many posts explicitly supporting breastfeeding recommendations based on this research.

InterestHigh interest

The posts demonstrate strong interest, highlighting key results like antibody presence and the safety of breastfeeding during COVID-19, indicating curiosity and value placed on the findings.

EngagementHigh engagement

Many social discussions reference specific details of the study, such as the absence of viral RNA and the presence of IgA antibodies, showing active engagement and a deep understanding of the research implications.

ImpactHigh impact

The discussions suggest considerable impact, with posts advocating for public health policies and emphasizing the importance of breastfeeding during the pandemic, which could influence guidance and practices.

Abstract in brief

Limited data exists on the risks and benefits of breastfeeding during and after maternal COVID-19 infection, particularly regarding the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in human milk.
The study collected and analyzed samples from 64 lactating women with COVID-19 over two months, focusing on the detection of SARS-CoV-2 and the presence of specific immunoglobulin (Ig) A in milk.
Findings showed no presence of SARS-CoV-2 in milk or on the majority of breast swabs, while a significant percentage of milk samples contained anti-RBD IgA, suggesting that breastfeeding may provide passive immunity without risk of virus transmission.

Milk produced by women with COVID-19 does not contain the virus & is likely a lasting source of passive immunity via antibodies. Findings support recommendations encouraging lactating women to continue breastfeeding during & after COVID-19 illness @CSDE_UW https://t.co/T4peg0wOOR https://t.co/IDY9sVfeb7
