Hi all,

Is there any information at all about COVID-19 and breastfeeding?  I 
realise that mum would need to be exposed to the virus in order to 
begin to make antibodies.  I just heard earlier today on a reputable 
radio program that young babies, under 1 year of age, were not 
protected.  I have asked the team presenting if they have research 
for this comment.  I have read the CDC guide.

Thanks,
