CINCINNATI â New research is examining whether antibodies found in breast milk could help fight off and treat severe cases of COVID-19. There s a lot of chatter about that, and I think that s exciting, Dr. Laura Ward, a neonatologist at Cincinnati Children s Hospital Medical Center, said.
The research is still in its infancy, but Ward said there is evidence that breast milk contains antibodies which help protect against lower-respiratory issues. It makes sense that breastfeeding is protective against this virus, Ward said. I think we re just starting to come up with that evidence for sure.

As Covid-19 vaccines go into broad use, some rare side effects of vaccination will almost certainly emerge, like the reports of small numbers of people developing anaphylaxis. But so will medical events whose timing just comes down to random chance and the potential ripple effects of those reports already have experts concerned.
Every single day, people die unexpectedly. They have strokes and heart attacks and seizures. On an average day, 110 people in this country may develop Bell’s palsy, a temporary facial paralysis, and another 274 will develop Guillain-Barré syndrome, a form of paralysis that usually resolves over time. The trigger for these medical events often isn’t known. But when they happen shortly after someone gets a vaccine especially a new one well, conclusions will be drawn.
