Ciudad de México, MéxicoThe COVID-19 pandemic has affected the health attention in all dimensions, one of them, the exclusive breastfeeding assurance and her promotion. The high risk of contagion and the pandemic consequences have raised a number of concerns in future mothers or those who are breastfeeding because of the risk of a possible transmission of the virus through breast milk. Although SARS-CoV2 has no evidence of being active on breast milk, the fear of contagion has favored mother-child isolation policies. At this point, there are no evidence of vertical transmission and the risk of horizontal transmission in the infant is similar to the general population. Breastfeeding in newborn with COVID-19, can even favorably change the clinical course of the disease. https://www.gacetamedicademexico.com/frame_esp.php?id=572Breastfeeding. COVID-19. Newborn.
