A new study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) showed trace amounts of the COVID-19 vaccine mRNAs in breast milk..JAMA issued a warning to women breastfeeding children younger than six months old..“Caution is warranted regarding breastfeeding infants younger than six months in the first two days after maternal COVID-19 vaccination,” said the JAMA tweet..They included eleven healthy lactating women in the study who received the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine within six months of giving birth..The participants collected and froze samples of their breast milk while breastfeeding, as well as breast milk samples before getting vaccinated and for the five days following vaccination..Seven samples from five women had trace amounts of the vaccines, with the mRNA samples having higher concentrations than in whole milk..There was no vaccine mRNA detected in pre-vaccination or post-vaccination samples after two days..“The sporadic presence and trace quantities of COVID-19 vaccine mRNA detected in EBM [expressed breast milk] suggest that breastfeeding after COVID-19 mRNA vaccination is safe, particularly beyond 48 hours after vaccination,” said the study.. Baby .The study did not “test the possible cumulative vaccine mRNA exposure after frequent breastfeeding in infants.”.“In addition, the potential interference of COVID-19 vaccine mRNA with the immune response to multiple routine vaccines given to infants during the first six months of age needs to be considered,” said the study..The study said future studies must include women breastfeeding to evaluate the effects of trace amounts of mRNA on infants. .“It is critical that lactating individuals be included in future vaccination trials to better evaluate the effect of mRNA vaccines on lactation outcomes,” said the study..Currently, there are no vaccines approved for infants younger than six months, as Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration need more data on the impact on the immune system..The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine for breastfeeding women..U.S. Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) blasted President Joe Biden for pushing the vaccine mandate onto breastfeeding women..“Now we find out that Biden’s vaccine mandates caused infants (for which no safe dose has been established) to receive mRNA through their mother’s breast milk. Does abuse of power get any more evil?”.JAMA is an international peer-reviewed medical journal.
