Study .. a mother vaccinated against “Corona” protects her infant

A recent study found that the breast milk of a mother who received a vaccine against the emerging coronavirus contains antibodies that may protect her infant from infection.

According to a report published by the British newspaper, The Independent, more research is needed to determine the effects of antibodies on infant immunity.

According to the study, researchers from the American University of Florida said that their findings could have a positive impact on vaccination rates for pregnant and lactating women who considered vaccines safe for them, but many of them are still hesitant about vaccination.

The study included an analysis of milk from 21 nursing mothers who worked in the health care field, as they were enrolled in the study as of December 2020, when vaccines became available to health care workers, and the study continued until March 2021.

The mother's blood and milk were tested at three intervals to detect antibodies before vaccination, after the first vaccine dose, and then the second dose.

The scientists found that mother's milk after the second dose had a 100-fold increase in antibodies, which play an important role in immunity and infection control. New: "A lot of mothers and pregnant women are afraid to get vaccinated. They want what's best for their children.. That's something we wanted to know, and whether the vaccine would actually provide some benefits."

The study recommended that more extensive studies be conducted to confirm the researchers' findings.
